Why is my life such a bore? Why are the pigs always at my door? Why do I have to live in a slum? Why are the pigs a pain in the fucking arsehole? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why does the government do things wrong? Why are they always making bombs? Why did we have to fuck Iraq? Why do we have to suck so much American cock?

One and two, no time for you, in and out, scream and shout Big words, that's all they are A song I wrote, note for note, there and back, jumpin' jack Henry Brown, up and down, black and white, screaming shite

Old is new and new is out Today is really yesterday All our future's in the past And we'll never see tomorrow We're all living in a retro age Looking backwards. 20 years no further forward Harking back to the good old days Well what's so fucking good about 'em? The real world just passed you by

Who's been smoking all your fags? And licking your bird's saddlebags? Who kicked all your windows out? Who came round and trashed your house? Who's the one who ate your mouse? Who called your sister a big fat trout? Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me Who put dog shit in your hat? And shaved the fur off your pet cat? Who put dynamite down your bog? Who d'ya think smoked all your hash? Went through your wallet and nicked your cash? Who set fire to your dog? Who put an axe through your front door? Who spewed up all over the floor? Who told your bird you've got VD? Who d'ya think crapped in the sink? And made the whole house fucking stink? Yeah, that's right, it was fucking me!!

Why? Whyyyyyyyyy?

Fry your brains and fuck your eys, illiterate with R.S.I. And you think you're getting better Slouch around like lazy cunts, growing claws to replace your thumbs You all strain to see We've lost the art of speech, we can't communicate Texting this and texting that We've lost the art of speech, we can't communicate Well, fuck it, let's abbreviate Dumb buttons and empty heads, conversation's nearly dead Where's the progress in that? The next big thing is oh-so-small, with your bent back you don't look so tall It's made so easy for you

Don't wanna be in someone's shadow, be inspired not too shallow Be someone make it happen. This is me I won't slow down, reality will come around, I'm gonna be there Here to stay, save your heartache for another day, one more second I want to stay Don't race too quick and you'll go faster, at the time seemed to last, never quit never get me down In my life I always reckoned, I won't quit, one last second. you're my inspiration
