In bedrooms across England // and all the Western world // there’s posters and there’s magazines // but the music isn’t ours
So tear down the stars now // and take up your guitars // come on folks and try this at home
Let’s stop waiting around // for someone to patronize us // Let’s hammer out a sound // that speaks of where we’ve been // Forget about the haircuts // the stupid skinny jeans
// the stampedes and the irony // the media-fed scenes

Key lines from the lyrics:
In bedrooms across England // and all the Western world // there’s posters and there’s magazines // but the music isn’t ours
So tear down the stars now // and take up your guitars // come on folks and try this at home
Let’s stop waiting around // for someone to patronize us // Let’s hammer out a sound // that speaks of where we’ve been // Forget about the haircuts // the stupid skinny jeans // the stampedes and the irony // the media-fed scenes
Do listen to the whole thing, it's a great song.
