lyrics

Oh England my England
Old homeland at that
So full of cunts
In Burberry caps

You needed The Streets to show you the way
He’s driving his roller round Hampshire today
You needed The Smiths but now Morissey’s fat
And the Queen is not dead and your rubber ring’s flat

You needed the Floyd to say “Thatcher don’t care”
Now Roger and David have dinner with Blair
Dad says "You needed to listen to stories of blood
So you failed to take note of the impending flood"

Oh England my England
Old homeland at that
Is so full of cunts
In Burberry caps

You needed the States when old Russia was mighty
(Now) the warmonger laughs of his friendship with blighty

Oh England I loved you
What weakness destroyed you
So England my homeland
I strive to avoid you ?

And now as we reap of the damage we sow
With some bacon and eggs and a Starbucks to go
As we backtrack to remedy laws that we flouted
The eventual tally has yet to be counted

Oh England my England
What weakness destroyed you
So England my homeland
I vow to avoid you ?
