Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The subtext of this song
I've thought about it for so long
It's really not the sort of thing
That people want to hear us sing
[Verse 2]
The context of this song
Well, I could go on and on
It's still unfashionable
To believe in principles
[Verse 3]
South, South Yorkshire
Mass murderer
How can you sleep at night?
Sleep at night
[Verse 4]
South, South Yorkshire
Mass murderer
How can you sleep at night?
Sleep at night
[Verse 5]
The reason for this song
Well, maybe it's a pointless one
Thank you Jimmy McGovern
For remindin' me of what lives on
[Verse 6]
The endin' for this song
Well, I haven't thought of one
There's nothing I could ever say
That could ever take the pain away
[Verse 7]
South, South Yorkshire
Mass murderer
How can you sleep at night?
Sleep at night
[Verse 8]
South, South Yorkshire
Mass murderer
How can you sleep at night?
Sleep at night
Written by: James Dean Bradfield, Nick Jones, Sean Moore
