lyrics

You got the houses and the cars and the haute couture
A bunch of gold diggers and a pedicure
You've hoovered more coke than a knackered Henry
You deserve this, is the message you send me

But you just got lucky like every other twat
Who's written three books bout how to do it like that
We're huffing and puffing and we'll blow your house down
Cos what goes around is now coming around.

You still think everybody's trying to live the dream
Your crap constructed bullshititsms make me want to scream
Let me make it simple here's a fucking pie
If you've already eaten it how can I ?

Sure we can all go out and try to make our own
Then there's nothing left to make them with you thought free zone
You're lounging on the cliff edge sawing at the ground
When there's nothing left to stand on we'll be coming around

You'll be sitting on your money when the world blows up
Drinking fizzy fiction from a diamond cup
Face's on fire for the final sup
You'll be sitting on your money and it won't mean a fuck

You're the poster boy for conspicuous consumption
You're the king of the castle you're the mayor of Trumpton
You're the M4 services, Cardiff West.
You got to dress your children in a bullet proof vest

You bought some freedom but you show your chains
In the zillion dollar sanctuary of human remains
Is your dream still a dream if people die for it?
Or is it now and was it then and will it always be shit?

You'll be sitting on your money when the world blows up
Drinking fizzy fiction from a diamond cup
Face's on fire for the final sup
You'll be sitting on your money and it won't mean a fuck

You'll be sitting on your money when the world blows up
Drinking fizzy fiction from a diamond cup
Face's on fire for the final sup
You'll be sitting on your money and it won't mean a fuck

Been around some blocks but this our first recording together. Recorded in no time straight into a big old desk it's raw, like we're playing next door.
