The Committee

Drown

Drown

(Recording.)

Sad bastards at the Roy Ayhrs show

One day fans in trendy clothes

Geeking away to tunes they don't know

Big man on steroids and reputations

That don't match up to what they did in the past

Ya tits ain't that stiff Gary, shut ya mouth

Racist gangsters turn into apologetic weak chancers

We used to run for the club in town

Now I play bass in Gil Scott Heron's band

And pass stolen authority on all that is soul and folk

Eager Caesars get back in your holes

You naughty geezers

Nationalisation, slaps on the back

Ya old fighting chums are thick lads

Don't nod at me like I'm approved Ray Winston wee wee

Story's about machetes in small East End pubs

Like bunnies on lettuce

Jackonori that you gimp he's earned his stripes mates

Look at the limp

Brown Saturdays rainy 1990's, rainy 1990's

Look at the top trumps

Look at the top trumps I'm scared

Here comes the committee

The hand fits the glove and you've all lined up

You were sod all then and ya still nothing dock

You still act like a man with your PhD

In Suedehead snuff and early Reggaeman

But the boat don't tip and there's never new ground

You just want people to think you're a subculture man

Hands like goal nets saving every one

When its your 50th birthday you have a party in a pub

And invite everyone and walk around

Like you just wrote Jimmy Mack

Fuck off twat

Look at the top trumps

Look at the top trumps I'm scared

Here comes the committee

What needs the machinist don't even hide the lie

It's a crap machine no grease industrial

I got all cardiacs thinking they're blackbelts

With a pair of nunchukas on a box of cereal

Goal goal goal goal goal

Gary Bushel whoopee cushions under the arse

Are the next big thing in breaking glass

You are held down by the hand of the crown

And the underclass times two

We are held down by the hand of the cr...

Look at the top trumps

Look at the top trumps I'm scared

Here comes the committee

Look at the top trumps

Look at the top trumps I'm scared

Here comes the committee
