Dead Horse

The last bastion of hope
 This once-great nation had left is its humor
 So be it, through continued mockery
 This crackpot country half-full of cunts
 Will finally have the last laugh
 When dragged underwater
 By the weight of the tumor
 It formed when it fell for the fear mongering
 Of the national fronts new hairdo
 ♪
 So, then, what becomes of the inhabitants
 Of this once-unstoppable isle
 When all of its exports are no longer in style?
 Are you seriously still tryna kid me
 That our culture will be just fine
 When all that's left is nobheads morris dancing
 To sham 69?
 Gob on the ragman rally 'round the maypole
 Hijack the sound and stake your claim to it
 Every card played is a statement made
 And there's always a new a scapegoat to blame for it
 England, my heart bleeds, why'd you abandon me?
 Yes, I abandoned you too, but we both know
 I wasn't the one lied to and I'm not scared of people
 Who don't look like me, unlike you

 So bold it is in its idiocy
 So bound by its own stupidity
 It does not realize it has already
 Sentenced itself completely to death
 The last bastion of hope
 This once-great nation had left was good music
 But we didn't nurture it, instead choosing to ignore it
 Yes, we've been trapped by the same crowd that don't like it
 Unless they've heard it before
 Leaving me stuck flogging my progressive dead horse
 South of the border to the
 So-so and sos and through and throughs and this and that
 I'm buttered breads and proud of it
 Whose values flit whenever it fucking suits them
 And we're supposed to let it slide
 Because the press have normalized
 The idea that racism is something we should humor
 Yeah, the last bastion of hope
 This once-great nation has left is to converse
 In a manner that will pacify, divide, and unite the room
 But no one is talking
 And rational thought has been forced into submission
 By the medium through which all of our information is now consumed
 Yes, fake news (fake news)
 Yes, fake news, mate (fake news)
 So bold it is in its idiocy
 So bound by its own stupidity
 It does not realize it has already
 Sentenced itself completely to death
 So bold it is in its idiocy
 So bound by its own stupidity
 It does not realize it has already
 Sentenced itself completely to death
 So bold it is in its idiocy
 So bound by its own stupidity
 It does not realize it has already
 Sentenced itself completely to death
 So bold
