animal mechanicals – anglicised utopia (society has quite forsaken) lyrics

Loading...

[rex]
society has quite forsaken all her wicked courses
which empties our police courts, and abolishes divorces

[animal mechanicals]
(divorces nearly obsolete in england!)

[rex]
no tolerance we show to undeserving rank and splendour;
for the higher his position is the greater and defender

[animal mechanicals]
(that’s maxim that is prevalent in england!)

[rex]
no peeress at our drawing-room before the presence p-sses
who wouldn’t be accepted by the lower middle-cl-sses
each shady dame, whatever be her rank, is bowed out neatly

[animal mechanicals]
(in short, this happy country has been anglicised completely, completely, completely…)

chorus:
it’s really and surprising, what a thorough anglicizing
we have brought about — utopia’s another land;
in her enterprising movements, she is england — with improvements
which we dutifully offer to our motherland!

[rex]
our city we have beautified — we’ve done it british tweenie —
and all that isn’t belgrave square is strand and piccadilly

[animal mechanicals]
(we haven’t any slummeries in england!)

[rex]
we have solved the labour question with discrimination polished
so poverty is obsolete and hunger is abolished

[animal mechanicals]
(we’re going to abolish it in england!)

[rex]
lord chamberlain, our native stage, has purged beyond a question
of “risky” situation and indelicate suggestion;
no piece is tolerated if it’s costumed indiscreetly —

[animal mechanicals]
(in short, this happy country has been anglicised completely, completely, completely…) (repeat chorus)

[rex]
our peerage we’ve remodelled on an intellectual basis
which certainly is rough on our hereditary races —

[animal mechanicals]
(we’re going to remodel it in england!)

[rex]
the brewers and the cotton lords no longer seek admission
and literary merit meets with proper recognition —

[animal mechanicals]
(as literary merit does in england!)

[rex]
who knows but we may count among our intellectual meanies
like animal mechanicals; and of course, the british tweenies
like bella, milo, fizz, and jake…(they are here! completely‽)—

[animal mechanicals]
(no! in short, this happy country has been anglicised completely, completely, completely…) (repeat chorus x2)
