Jesus Jones - Welcome Back Victoria Lyrics
Welcome back Victoria
Since you've gone you know that no one's really missed you
Welcome back Victoria
And now your friends watch over everything
That we do
Welcome back Victoria
So the pendulum swings back
Welcome back Victoria
You went away, OK
We got a little slack
And once again you'll cover up
What you don't understand
Don't close your eyes
You can't hide behind your hands
Welcome back Victoria
We'll be no threat when we're deaf, dumb and blind
Welcome back Victoria
Clean books, clean screens, clean words
Dirty minds
I am a child of the sixties
And for that I must pay
You wag your finger all you like
I'll tell you something, it's my children
They'll have no choice but to say
Welcome back Victoria
I trust your piano legs are covered up again
Welcome back Victoria
Double standards are your forte, now as then
Welcome back Victoria
We'll tip our tophats
To those who walk the streets
And you know what I mean, now
Welcome back Victoria
On Commercial Street
Be careful who you meet
But you're all right, jack
Welcome back, welcome back, yeah
Welcome back, welcome back...

Jesus Jones Welcome Back Victoria Comments
Very “Dear Goddy”
Found the cassette someplace when 17. Went to prison for many many years. Got out and bought smart phone. Gotta love youtube and the window it provides for retrospective melancholy. I miss the 90's. Jonrock1977
Actually I do understand the true meaning of the song, I made these videos to represent the feeling they gave me when I first listened to them... nearly 30 years ago when I was merely a teenager...
This song released in 1990. It is a "sounding" against social conformity or freedom of expression. Investigate socialism in it's entirety: Spain 1930s, Germany 1920s. Russia and Eastern Europe. Investigate the culture of 1890 London....
Stoic conformity,era, learn from history.
the moment then and now eh?
VICTORIA FROM DIRECT EXPRESS.
THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!
Could always hear a The The influence on this..
great song! kinda loosely reminds me of Dear God by XTC.
and they nicked a chord or two from The Cult as well. no harm no foul :)
jesus jones for ever
Heard of jesus jones when I was 13 and now 39 I'm still listening to them
Jim Bob Boing ...me too
I think you've all missed the message of the song. Its about the late Margret Thatcher and her ideals of a new Victorian culture in a modern age.
Lee Weston I've listened to those lyrics so many times and it's only just clicked!
Jesus jones support Maggie 😆😆😆
My children were brainwashed by my abusers.........I'm a typical victim & that is just the way it is!!!....Nobody gives a fock!.........Go to the police? Why? So my SUPER VIOLENT child molester would kill me?
Wish they still toured, awesome song.
they are touring and working in a new album
SO relevant right now...
hello from 2019. it's still relevant. :(
victorius
