The Royal Family

You have been cordially invited
To pay allegiance to the King
And his cracked out family
Happily, I'll sing to the rooftops your majesty
Sing about the fact that you're a product of a rapidly dying country
The news is loud
Obsessed with money
When there's none to go around

Disparity
Poverty
En masse
And you are but a symbol of class
"We do have class
"Values, patience
"The best fucking thing in this shit hole of a nation"

We're facing a race against crisis
Where do you stand?
"We will help when it gets out of hand"
It's already out of hand
Have you seen it?
"Seen what?"
Seen that
Death by thousands, I mean that
Dying in starvation
Have you fucking seen that?
Course you haven't seen that
"No, we do that believe that"

When we're flying the Union Jack
Telling you we love you and your family and we've got your back
Spending our money
Where will you stand?
All you're really gonna do is sit where the Queen sat

Which tax haven were you conceived in?
Bermuda
Father was on a retreat writing dystopian fiction about a Socialist future
Dare I say, I nearly thought it true
Mm, yes, quite

With the Jeremy Corbin scare
And the odd protest or two
It's all rather overwhelming
What the flies might do
When they gather the likeminded
And they do gather a few

Funny little angry things
Aren't they at times?
They ought to count themselves lucky we don't force them in line
That's a future I aspire to
A little more control
For safety of course
As safety is always an honest goal

We'll keep them scared
Blame terrorists
Or the fear of God above
If we change the people
They won't change us

See an open road
To escalate your life
I see an open road
To escalate your life
I see an open road
To escalate your life
I see an open road
To escalate your life

Open road
To escalate your life
I see an open road
To escalate your life
I said I see an open road
To escalate your life

We see an open road
To escalate your life
