Lyrics

"They want our way of life" Well, they can take mine any time they like 'Cos god knows - I know I ain't living right: I'm wrong Oh, I know I'm so wrong So like the Roman Empire fell away Let me tell you; we are going the same way Ah, behold the Decline and Fall All hold hands with our backs to the wall It's the end: Why don't you admit it? It's the same from Auschwitz to Ipswich Evil comes I know from not where But if you take a look inside yourself - maybe you'll find some in there Not one single soul was saved I was ordering an Indian takeaway I was spared whilst others went to an early grave Oh, got stoned Yeah, went out and got stoned Well if your ancestors could see you standing there They would gaze in wonder at your Frigidaire They had to fight just to survive So can't you do something with your life? It's the end: Why don't you admit it? It's the same from Auschwitz to Ipswich Evil comes I know from not where But if you take a look inside yourself - maybe you'll find some in there Here it comes, why don't you embrace it? You lack the guts needed to face it Say goodbye to the way you've been living You never realised you were on the wrong side And nobody's going to win "They want our way of life" Well, they can take mine any time they like
