Straightforward, no-nonsense attack on many aspects of the 'Great British' way of life. Hard, fast, aggrssive and, yes, you CAN hear the words - what's the pont of making a statement when no one can HEAR it?
Story behind the song
Just take a look around Britain today and tell me it's fair and just! Greed and profiteering from industries, political decisions based on bribery and corruption, 'green policies' that get votes but 'patch-up' rather than change the world for the better, decisions for war based on financial gain (If Blair & Bush invaded Iraq to rid the world of an evil regime, why have they not done the same for Zimbabwe? Try, 'Because Zimbabwe ain't got oil!'), voilence in the home, kids wasting their lives, scientists changing the world for their won curiosity instead of healing... This can from simply sitting and thinking about what had affected me in one day and writing about the issues. They're in no particular order, they just came onto the paper as i was writing. Enjoy it and DO SOMETHING!
Lyrics
Electoral Dope, Political Speed
Governments bite the hands that feed
Red and Orange and Green and Blue
Vying to get your cross from you
Heads of business greasing palms
Planning Permission, Oil for Arms
profits first then greenhouse gases
Pathetic Policies please the masses
This is Britain, What we've become
No excuse for what we've done
Cheap and Crass Reality
Coming out of my TV
Dumb it down like the Daily Star
ID Cards so we know who we are
Paranoia hand in hand
With a crap excuse for a terrorist stand
Housing Estates on Greenbelt land
Government with it's head in the sand
This is Britain what we've become
Trying to pretend we're still Number One
Listen to the Retards, Listen to the Queers
You put down for all these Years
Listen to the Niggers, Listen to the Punks
Listen to your Conscience just for fucking once
Kids with Kids, Kids on the Pill
Kids on Dope & Kids who Kill
OAPs they want kids too
So medical morons make it true
Throwaway love, disposable sex
Removable thought, deletable text
Marriage to Violence, Physical Hate
The Pitiful cries of a fucked up state.
This is Britain, What we've become
No excuse for what we've done.
