Something to Remember

Those old Windsors are at it again
One rule for you and another for them
No one in the palace has excuses for it anymore

Ono sideboard is giving me hell
Conjecture is the only thing that I have to sell
According to the focus group that doesn't play well
Our shit doesn't smell

And I am aware that no one in the world can do the things that they do
And get away with saying that they do them for you
Something to remember when you're reading the news

What happened? When did I alleviate myself of the zeal?
And the gusto for ensuring that the prophecy's real?
When did I forget that I was eating a meal?

And I remember the moment the penny dropped

I'm going out now
For a while
I've got to satiate the anglophiles
Got angels on my left
The devil's on my right
They may remind me that I'm straying from the light

When you realise that you're a racist
All you have to do is pay it back
And what do you do about that?
Double down and buy a flat?

Old Sir Haircut is driving me mad
The best benign apologist that we've ever had
Is this the cost of swaying all the middle class dads?

My transgressions well they're making me hot
I'm turning into everything I promised I'm not
I used to have a little babe now I've got a lot
It ain't gonna stop

And I am aware that no one in the world has lived the life that I have
And even if they had they'd say it wasn't that bad
Something to remember when you're hugging the lads

Oh now baby, how can I control myself when I cannot dance?
How can I compete if I'm not given a chance?
What's a guy to do to get a label advance?

And I remember the moment the urgency dropped
