Commonwealth song lyrics by The Beatles official

Commonwealth is a song in English

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"

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"

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"

Commonwealth (Yes?) commonwealth (Yes?)
Commonwealth (Yes?) commonwealth (Yes?)
If you don’t want trouble
Then you better go back to home

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

Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?) commonwealth (Yes?)
Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?)
Can't you hear me, Commonwealth? (Yes?)
Well, there ain’t Enoch Powell (Oh)

Well, I trekked down to Australia
And said to New Zealand
"You better come live with us
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

Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?)
Oh, Commonwealth (Yes?)
Yeah, Commonwealth (Yes?)
Oh, hear me talking commonwealth
Yeah, that Commonwealth
But it’s much too wealthy for me
(Much too common for me)
It's much too common for me, oh yeah

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"

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)
