It’s the longest running joke in history |
To kill the working classes in the name
of liberty | The lies of Hillsborough | The
blood of Orgreave | All the evasion at
the BBC
 
30 years of war to darken all our class |
Black propaganda lies and mistrust | See it
in our eyes the fire dimming away | The old
boy network won the war again | The old
boy network won the war again | The old
boy network won the war again
 
So you hide all Lowry ’s paintings | For
30 years or more | Cos he turned down
a knighthood | And you must now settle
the score | And the endless parade of old
Etonian scum | Line the front benches “so
what is to be done ” | All part of the same
establishment | I ask you again “what is
to be done ” | I ask you again “what is to be
done ” | I ask you again “what is to be done ”
 
These verses at attention stand | Ready
for the immortal command | The armies of
my pages | May never fight again | Happy
for the order to meet eternal fame
 
Blame the poor – praise the rich | Make the
connections – put them in print | Keep ’em
boxed in keep ’em kettled in | Create a
mistruth – so bewildering
