benefits - taking us back lyrics
[verse]
we’re alright mate
it’s not us it’s them
as he repeats himself
again and again
he throws over
a nod and a wink
and has another p+ss week
fighting drink
like a rose+tinted gammon dream
and it’s brought up again
we’ll never forgive
and we’ll never forget
you were never there
just accept it
it’s a bigotry claim
all hidden and named
through shabby endless
lines and lines and lines
of empty big+neck
clubber+men
and they’re kicking up
like god knows when
as aggression is in
fashion again
[chorus]
and they’re taking us back
they’re taking us back, back, back, back, back
[verse]
this ruddy based recession
a xenophobic monster crunch
orange lit side street
blood on concrete
illuminated polyester strutters
and they’re p+ssing in the gutters
we’re all p+ssing in the gutters
as this will be
forever england
forever rotting
forever sh+te
[chorus]
and they’re taking us back
they’re taking us back, back, back, back, back
[verse]
a statue of a dead white man
standing in a big square
looking down
with victorian frown
and remind you of a bygone sway
a non+existent memorial day
and it’s covered in pigeon sh+t
plastered head to foot
p+ssed up against on the weekend circuit
and it’s falling apart
and it’s weathered away
and no one cares who they are
a monument to an invented age
another monument to an invented age
[chorus]
and they’re taking us back
they’re taking us back, back, back, back, back
and they’re taking us back
they’re taking us back, back, back, back, back
[outro]
back, back, back, back, back
back, back, back, back, back
back, back, back, back, back
back, back, back, back, back
back, back, back, back, back
