To die for his mother country isn't every fathers wish But if you're ever feeling hungry feast your eyes on this Bullied beat up cabbaged kids to be patched up by the nurse who's carrying the baggage in for the private patients first and the doctor's praying to Buddha "Send me to another town!" A shovelful of sugar won't help that medicine go down As the actress said to the bishop I stand accused your Grace of the seven deadly cynicisms and a total lack of faith And if I put this gun against my head and pull the trigger I'll be dead But if I listen to my heart it say's Billy that ain't smart so I'll do something else instead (Billy's smart, Bily's smart circus for the bleeding hearts feed the world, heal the sick take the piss out of the shit live your life without a net stick your head down a lion's neck and listen to the people cheer send in the clowns don't bother they're here) To die for his mother's country isn't every fathers wish But if you're ever feeling hungry feast your eyes on this under funded O.A.P.s turn to life of crime The great cucumber robberies of 1989 Send 'em down and bang 'em up in a South London maisonette unlicensed and unregistered it shouldn't happen to a vet As the actress said to the bishop the Rabbi and the Priest My eyes have seen the glory I'm a born again atheist And if I put this gun against my head and pull the trigger I'll be dead But if I listen to my heart it say's Billy that ain't smart so I'll shoot someone else instead
