lyrics

I never trust a man who says he don't like Elvis

It's down to ignorance or he can't say what he means

But why the coca cola, why the bacardi

And the california white and the exxon anti-freeze

Now I don't want to get judgemental

But it might be said that it

Sounded like a revolution was happening down the watering hole, but it

Turned out it was just another

Prole display of capital

Though it sounded just identical

What did you expect?



I'd bring my donkeys in to chew on the carrots

Graze my mules on the dance floor, drive the stick through the swill

But the door policy don't extend to my livestock

This place will make us peasants though it came by our free will

I don't want to...


There's no head on the block, no US blockade

Just a different dry white wine in the same lemonade

For all the che guevara prints and the exposed bricks

When we put them on a plate they serve a menu of our dicks

I don't want to...
