New England
Welcome to the new world
The New England
Come witness the greatness of Britain
Driving around in a German car
Stop for lunch in a sushi bar
Get my news from the Daily Star
Get my kicks from tits and arses
Never mind about social classes
I'll cast my vote regardless
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
Welcome to the new world
The New England
All heroes, no villains
Double-decker bus and a bowler hat
Bob the builder, postman pat
Social change? No, I don't want that
Just sitting, eating crisps in my one-bed apartment
Politics, that's not my department
But I'll cast my vote regardless
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
You're such a fool Britannia
Britannia fooled again
Britannia, you're so vane
You've gone insane
'Cause you've been fooled Britannia
Britannia fooled again
Britannia, you're so strange
You've gone insane
Welcome to the new world
The new normal
Look at us queuing up, so formal
Sunday roast, God save the queen
Man United with the boot cut jeans
Money in my pocket, no, I'm not too keen
That's why I keep voting for the rich and heartless
Bored of all these moaning artists
So I'll cast my vote regardless
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
You're such a fool Britannia
Britannia fooled again
Britannia, you're so vane
You've gone insane
'Cause you've been fooled Britannia
Britannia fooled again
Britannia, you're so strange
You've gone insane
Too many idiots breathing up the air
Huffing and puffing like they just run up the stairs
Fighting and cussing like they haven't got a care
But they care about everything that happens over here
Not over there, they couldn't give a toss
If it's a brown country, they steal all the crops
Blow it to smithereens and let the bombs drop
Then they cry about the borders when they try and come across
Oh gosh
I think this place is going nutty
Too much spice, less british bacon butty
Worry about your neighbors and worry about the druggies
And not the Eton graduates that's taking all your money
Hmm, it seems they're taking the piss
Not blaming the brown fella is hard to resist
You would have thought that the nation was smarter than this
But I've got a couple of questions
Please answer me this
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
Is it you can't change
Or that you won't change?
You're such a fool Britannia
Britannia fooled again
Britannia, you're so vane
You've gone insane
'Cause you've been fooled Britannia
Britannia fooled again
Britannia, you're so strange
You've gone insane
You ain't shut them out
You just locked us in
You ain't shut them out
You just locked us in
You ain't shut them out
You just locked us in
You ain't shut them out
You just locked us in
You ain't shut them out
You just locked us in
You ain't shut them out
You just locked us in
Au revoir
Arrivederci, adiós
