about

It was summer '16
We were singing a song
We drank for Dutch courage
On the last days of Rome
And I spied a dark bird
On my way home
One for sorrow
Eating chips off the road

My mother was a dark horse
Daddy drove trains
A white picket fence
And a commuter's brains
So he hit the bottle
He was never the same
I saw him crying
I saw a country change

You can take back control they said
Then they sold us while we slept in our beds
They're all liars, scumbags
I wish them all dead
But how long can they bleed us?
We've already bled
We've already

The isle's full of noises
And dreamed up delights
They're dividing the left
While they come for their rights
Britannia was an island
Once stole the waves
Now she's drowning
Now her children will pay
Now her children will pay
Now her children will pay
Now her children will pay
