Story by Andrew Alan Matthews Mcdonalds where the Rialto used to be Higher Broughton Salford And as you look on this scene We can dream days of the past Where Rialto Super cinema Stood tall and imposing Snooker Hall and dance hall Bring joy to the people Opened in 1927 as Rialto cinema Then ABC cinema in 31 Alpha Bingo 73 Then Coral Bingo till 99 a disco later on Then it was gone burnt down People frown Cos now it’s a Drive through Mcdonalds On a Salford scene And as we look down Bury New Road Theres a load of skyscrapers Scrapin the sky With strangeways prison Gods unforgiven Fill the place They pile out the place It’s the human race In yer face Where people fill the city With hope in there hearts To make a new start In a modern city Some say it’s a pity So yeah Mcdonalds where the Rialto used to be Higher Broughton Salford And as you look on this scene We can dream days of the past Where the Rialto super cinema Stood tall and imposing But now bulldozer crews And Cranes build a modern city Manchester and Salford Tryin to look pretty https://youtu.be/6Wfwq7dwrv4
