[Verse 1]
Whenever I'm in the tightest corner
Whenever I feel forlorn
I think of the isle where I was born
And the duty to which I've sworn
But I woke up in a nightmare
With a Union Jack and half a crown
John Bull got caught with his pants down, again
[Pre-Chorus]
That's inviting sundown
It's time to do or die
It's time to say goodbye
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
Yes I'm the one, I let the sun go down
[Verse 2]
Don't let the shadows lengthen
And cover my good intentions
They say that darkness brings the right time
But it's also time for tears
I'm so sorry and sincere
Ahead of me a brilliant career
Whenever I'm in the tightest corner
Whenever I feel forlorn
I think of the isle where I was born
And the duty to which I've sworn
But I woke up in a nightmare
With a Union Jack and half a crown
John Bull got caught with his pants down, again
[Pre-Chorus]
That's inviting sundown
It's time to do or die
It's time to say goodbye
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm the man who lost the British Empire
Yes I'm the one, I let the sun go down
[Verse 2]
Don't let the shadows lengthen
And cover my good intentions
They say that darkness brings the right time
But it's also time for tears
I'm so sorry and sincere
Ahead of me a brilliant career
