Burn The Empire

See, I think there are two ways in which people are controlled
First of all, frighten people, and secondly, demoralise them
An educated, healthy and confident nation
Is harder to govern
And I think there's an element in the thinking of some people
We don't want people to be educated, healthy and confident
Because they would get out of control

Did your daddy ever tell you you've got nothing to lose?
There's nothing better to have, nothing but a point you can prove
Your single mother with her lover, she forgot about you
And right brain on dopamine, left brain on cruise control

And all your life, your sister
Magically dumbfounded by problematic diplomacy
And I won't take a back seat
No fucking way man, there's no fucking way

The world's controlled by people controlling people
So come on people, burn the empire, bring her to her knees
The world's controlled by people controlling people
So come on people, burn the empire, bring her to her knees

And Boris like a Morris Minor, old and obtuse
And dazed and confused
Eton rifles, gun sling loose

And all your life, your sister
Magically dumbfounded by problematic diplomacy
And I won't take a back seat
No fucking way man, there's no fucking way

The world's controlled by people controlling people
So come on people, burn the empire, bring her to her knees
The world's controlled by people controlling people
So come on people, burn the empire, bring her to her knees

Burn the empire, burn the empire
Burn the empire, burn the empire
Burn the empire

Get out of control
Get out of control
Get out of control
Burn the empire, bring her to her knees
