British Bombs

Great snakes, are we movin' already?

Good gravy, did you say it cost a penny or two?

For you, well, talkin' 'bout the bad starts

My baby brother has already got a gas mask

'Cause it's a good old fashioned landslide

Killin' with your hands tied

In the homemade rope

Set sail, babe, we read it in The Mail, no hope now

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

Why does it seem

A fever dream for all?

The call you made to me, you said I fear

One day each year

I worry we shall remember the dead

And we'll remember the dead

So they know that we're sorry

But then carry on

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

How could it be the money, it's the vote that matters to me

You say you're hungry, but you won't eat the caraway seed

Does it matter in the wreckage, what should you say?

Well, I found myself a little peckish last Tuesday

This is what you signed up for, no questions

Reckon we could offer peace time from weapons conventions

Well, it's on the table, but it's no game, can't you hear

All our worries for fear, carry on

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

It's a good old-fashioned landslide

Killin' with your hands tied

In the homemade rope

Set sail, babe, we read it in The Mail, no hope now

And it's a total fucking whitewash

The people that we might squash

Ammo from home soil

Set sail for wherever the fuck got oil this time

And if it's not a fucking war crime

It's a total waste of your time

And getting so much worse

Get real, kid, your country's been at war since birth now

And if it's not a fucking outrage

What's it all about, babe?

Now it's one on one

Great Britain's gonna tell ya where it all went wrong, and then carry on

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen

Great way to fool me again, hun

Great actin', it's great what you tell 'em

Great Britain won't stand for felons

Great British bombs in the Yemen
