Ashtead is a village situated within the Metropolitan Green Belt of Surrey, England, and is just outside of the suburbia of London. It is separated from Leatherhead by the M25, and from Epsom by Ashtead Common.
There has been settlement in Ashtead since at least Roman times, with a Roman villa excavated in what is now Ashtead common. Ashtead lay within the Copthorne hundred, an administrative division devised by the Saxons.
Ashtead appears in the Domesday Book as Stede. It was held by the Canons of Bayeux from the Bishop of Bayeux. Its Domesday Assets were: 3 hides and 1 virgate; 16 ploughs, 4 acres (16,000 m2) of meadow, woodland worth 7 hogs. It rendered (in total): £12. Its main source of water at the time seems to have been the Rye.
St Giles Church in Ashtead Park dates from the 12th century, and Ashtead is mentioned twice in Samuel Pepys' diaries. Part of his entry for 25 July 1663 reads:
Towards the evening we bade them adieu and took horse, being resolved that, instead of the race which fails us, we would go to Epsom When we come there we could hear of no lodging, the town so full, but which was better, I went towards Ashsted, and there we got a lodging in a little hole we could not stand upright in While supper was getting I walked up and down behind my cosen Pepys's house that was, which I find comes little short of what I took it to be when I was a little boy.
Evan Harold Davis (born 8 April 1962) is a British economist, journalist and presenter for the BBC. In October 2001, Davis took over from Peter Jay as the BBC's economics editor. He left this post in April 2008 to become a presenter on BBC Radio 4's Today programme. Evan Davis is also the presenter for the BBC venture-capitalist programme Dragons' Den, as well as The Bottom Line, a business conversation show, also on BBC Radio 4.
Davis grew up in Ashtead, Surrey.[citation needed] He attended Dorking County Grammar School, which in 1976 became The Ashcombe School, Dorking and later studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at St John's College, Oxford from 1981 to 1984, before obtaining an MPA at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.[citation needed] While at Oxford University, Davis edited Cherwell, the student newspaper.
Davis began work as an economist at the Institute for Fiscal Studies, and while there he was briefly seconded to help officials work on early development of the Community Charge system of local government taxation (better known as the Poll Tax). In 1988 he moved to the London Business School, writing articles for their publication "Business Strategy Review". He returned to the Institute for Fiscal Studies in 1992, writing a paper on "Britain, Europe and the Square Mile" for the European Policy Forum which argued that British financial prosperity depended on being seen as a bridgehead to the European Union.

We live out here in the desert
Where time stands still in the face of our foolish pride
We trade our love for ambition
And tell each other we'll get it on back in time
But time moves on like a river
She leaves us all behind
Like a summer rain it all gets washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better let 'em know
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
I watch the wing blow out there
Maybe hear some distant laughter
Look outside the hotel window
And my soul wanders off me
This is the time I'm mentioning
And I won't soon forget that
Your proud beauty lingers on
Until the storm is lifted
Go find your fortune fast
It's cold outside but you'll make it
Don't trade your love for ambition
Or you'll get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better let 'em know
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Love cliche and you used to tell me
Some things better change, all things won't last
Do the best you can, it'll all work out
At the end of the storm, you get to love another day
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better let 'em know
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
The time we spend as we pass this way
We might not ever be here again
Hold on tight, do what you might
And then we got tomorrow
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Round and round and round we go
Where it stops don't no one know
If you find a love you better hold on fast
Or you both get washed away
Stripped from life as it seems
Was washed away until another day
Words are left inside this memory
And that will always stay
I'll never need a friend to tell me
'Cause they'll never know
Just how it feels to love and loose a friend I can't let go
The years I knew you meant a lifetime to me
You'll always be this way washed away
Your life was washed away
A good time not a long time
I know you said that to me
I hoped that you'd be waiting for me
When my time comes, we'll see
Time won't mend, I felt the weight of you my friend
But I won't dissolve the memory when my time comes we'll see
Well I lit this room
To see the light of the world
And you put me down
To see your smiling face all around
But you washed away
With the clouds
To read the book
Is to find the hook
You can breathe the air
When you find the one who cares
And it might be nice to see the happiness
Flowing far between the lines
And it might be nice to see the loneliness
Fade away with the time
But you always wash away
With the clouds
Free the mind
Take the trip and fall behind
You can watch the flowers grow
Pebble by pebble, sand grain by sand grain
Shore turns to sea, shore turns to ocean
Serpent creates the high tides
To assure all good is floating
Good and righteousness is not intellectual
And the fabric that's good cannot be proven
And so that fabric is washed away
Far from the shore from which it was woven
The shore is a place where persons live
Sowing fabrics that's a tangent of the real one
Not wearable to most of the persons on shore
In fact, it's only wearable to the person of one
One person under an oath
A oath to a serpent, an evil snake
In search for being as powerful as God
And all God's good he'll try to take
He'll try to take, he'll try to take
Good being washed away, love being washed away
Most of the persons follow the serpent
'Cause the serpent preaches, "All for self"
But why follow someone in search of something
When you'll get nothing, serpent's all for self
Some are dumb, some know no better
Some believe there is no Lord
The serpent uses this knowledge to help him
Wash away more of the shore
Serpent knows once shores are gone
There's nothing left but ocean and sea
A few persons trying to save the shore
Some of those persons are A.D.
Saving the shore means saving the faith
The faith that there is a mighty someone
Someone much more mighty than the serpent
In fact the someone that created everyone
Up the ocean without a paddle
Is the fabric of God, the righteous clothing
And you wear non-righteous clothes of the serpent
Naively we keep on serving
The ocean's owned by the serpent
The ocean's owned by the serpent
The ocean's owned by the serpent
The ocean's owned by the serpent
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
Why we let them wash it away?
Why are we allowing them to take what's good?
Why don't we teach our children what is real?
Why don't we collect and save what is real?
Look very hard and swim the ocean
We must find what needs to be found
Look all around and find a wise man
Feed us the truth and keep us sound
All of us must swim the seas
'Cause our path's been washed away
All of us must swim the seas
'Cause our path's been washed away
My one purpose is to swim the seas
Find the truth and spread it around
Give it to the children that know how to listen
So they can pass it after I drown
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away, we can stop
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
We can stop being washed away
Sand grain by sand grain, pebble by pebble
We can stop this, we can stop
Can you help us? Will you help us?
Please, help us stop being washed away
All of us must swim the sea, all of us
Can you help us? Will you help us? Please, help us
Will you help us stop being washed away?
Can you help us? Will you help us?
All of us must swim the sea, all of us
All of us must swim the sea
Can you feel that, can you feel?
We're in problem we're in problem, we're in problem
Verse 1:
Some say the end is coming.
Some say it's already here.
Some say it's more than past us.
Pray for rain. Psycho sideshow.
Chorus:
Pray for rain, rust the chain.
All this pain, I had to gain.
Burn this burden, feel the strain.
All I had to do is change.
Sanity, it seems, fading away.
Learn to swim until I evaporate.
Verse 1 Repeat
Chorus
Verse 3:
Some say a comet flew, fell from the sky.
Followed by meteors, showers & tidal waves.
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dicks.
Some say the end is here.
Some say it'll be here again soon.
Some say it's never coming.
But it'll keep you all occupied.
Back to the way it always is.
Verse 4:
Well I'm prayin' for rain.
I'm prayin' for tidal wave.
I wanna see us to go down.
I wanna wash it all away.
I wanna see you cryin'
I wanna wash it all away.
Verse 5:
You can see me pryin'.
It's makin' you cry.
You can see me dyin'.
You shouldn't have to lie.
Chorus
My hands are shaking
My hands are making it plain
That I’ve been far from dry
Washed away for the last three days
Hit the town on Friday night
I think you left but I think I stayed
The phone is ringing
The phone is singing the same old song
I can sing along
Pure disgrace in a public place
Knew your name on Friday night
I think you left and I know I stayed
The bar is open
But if you’re hoping that I’ll desist
and not come home pissed
You’ve put your faith in a hopeless case
Took you out on Friday night
But then you left and I lost the place
woh-ah oh
He'd beat her up to come, she ran around
She shot him and they laid him in the ground
There's two children left without a home
Wondering what in world is going on
Guilty of murder first degree
Rushy mountain penitentiary
There's two children left without a home
Wondering what in world is going on
=CHORUS=
Who showed who
Who played it smart
One in jail one in the grave with a bullet through the heart
Who showed who
Who's right or wrong
Two children left without a home
=CHORUS=
Well I guess the tragic happenings never end
You don't think these things happen to your friend
Well I thought I knew them both so very well
But he's in the grave and she's in a cell
I guess they both found they were justified
But I can't say that I saw either side
But for Tommy and Mary right or wrong
There's two children left without a home
=CHORUS=
Who showed who
Who played it smart
One in jail one in the grave with a bullet through the heart
Who showed who
Who's right or wrong
Two children left without a home
