It's continual
Everyday new shit, new shift, new grift
Promises become lies, become promises, and then they die
Forgotten about, time after time
And I'm supposed to look up to you
To respect and bask in this awesome glow of riches and power
But there's nothing
No grandeur, no glory, no style, no substance
Just endless re-runs, old cheep plastic
And it's looking all battered now, so drastic
The nation's ravaged corpse, pecked to the bone
Meaty faces feverishly grasping that impotent throne
And I'm hit by the frustration in the elation
Sat on the sidelines, watching everything turn to shit
And you want me to be happy, to rejoice in this failure
Dance like a prick as the world falls apart
Yet you bait my morals, push me to poof out my chest
To laugh in the face of the ruiners of it all
The sycophants, enablers, the liars, the fools
Under gallons and gallons and gallons of imperialist drool
As those headlines wail, shouting their fucking heads off
Gold font, black letters in the corner of the newsagent
Larry, Gordon, screaming at the counter
And I'm lazy, I know I am
But this impending defeat hangs heavy in the air
And here he comes, the stride, the glide, all busts of pride
Little or no care, the criminal parade
A paper, a tweak, a grimace, a smirk
Let's all take a trip to fucking hell and maybe work
Trial bike balaclava flies past on this road of constant repaired despair
And the curb stinks of dog shit
And the sky's caving in
I'm wet right through
It's summer, it's autumn, it's winter, it's August
Just stop having 'em on
Just stop having 'em on
