Paul Mccartney - Commonwealth Lyrics

[Verse 1: Paul McCartney]
Tonight, Enoch Powell said, “Get out immigrants
Immigrants a-better go home”
Hah, hah, hah, hah
Tonight, Harold Wilson said to the immigrants
“You better get back to your Commonwealth homes”
Yeah, yeah, yeah
He said, “Ya better get back home”

[Verse 2: Paul McCartney]
Now, Enoch Powell
He said to the folks
He said you wear the color of your skin
He said he don’t care what it’s all about
[?]
So, Ted Heath said to Enoch Powell
He said, “You better get out
Or else you’re going to trial”
Enoch Powell
Enoch, you better go home”

[Verse 3: Paul McCartney]
So, Wilson said to Duchovny, F
“Come on, boy, we gotta swing
We gotta go back to the summit of the hill
And bury those [?] away”
So, Enoch Powell said to Wilson, Heath
“Boy, you Commonwealth”
[Chorus: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
Commonwealth (Yes?!)

If you don’t want trouble
Then you better go back to home

[Verse 4: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
So, I went to Pakistani
I went to India
I been to ol’ Calcutta
And I’ve had enough of that
I’m coming back (Yes?!)
To England town (Yes, welcome!)
And dirty Enoch Powell
And he’s had enough of Parliament

[Chorus: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?!)

Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?!)
Can't you hear me, Commonwealth? (Yes?!)

[Verse 5: Paul McCartney]
Well, I trekked down to Australia
And said to New Zealand

We’re gonna have some fun"
We’re going up to India
We’re going to Pakistan
We’re going up to Europe and [?]
And dirty Enoch Powell and his [?]
He says you gotta [?]
[Chorus: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?!)
Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?!)

But it’s much too wealthy for me (Much too common for me)
It's much too common for me, oh yeah

[Verse 6: Paul McCartney]
I ambled to Australia and New Zealand, too
I went up to Pakistan and India, too
I came back to West Indies
And I had a cricket match
I went into South Africa
And told them to get back
Oh, Commonwealth
I said, "You’re much too common for me"

[Chorus: Paul McCartney & John Lennon]
Everybody sing
Hey, Commonwealth (Yes?!)
Yeah, Commonwealth (Yes?!)
Enoch Powell, Commonwealth (Yes?!)
Immigrants, Commonwealth (Yes?!)
Well, I would join the Common Market
But it’s much too common for me (Yes!)
