Lyrics
The number's up, the number's down
The lights are out all over town
Lock-downs back, people settling down
For the curtain twitch, get ready to snitch
Haha, haha (sha, na-na, na-na), get ready to snitch
(Sha-na, na-na, no)
(Sha, na-na, na-na)
(Sha-na, na-na, no)
Life's a bitch, ain't it rich?
Fingers at the ready, scratch the free phone itch
Dial this number across the nation
For a year's supply of vaccinations
Come on down (sha, na-na, na-na), tonight's the night
Results are good (sha-na, na-na, no), the price is right
Satisfy the common need (sha, na-na, na-na)
Gratify the common greed (sha-na, na-na, no)
Hey, now
Who you gonna be now?
What you gonna do now
When the lights go down?
Hey, now
Where you gonna run now
Before the setting sun now?
Where you gonna go now?
Mad Max was right, you petrol heads
Asda was like the dawn of the dead
Panic buying loaves of bread
The toilet roll riots, you'll be left for dead
Powering up the neighborhood (sha, na-na, na-na)
Who ever thought it, would feel this good (sha-na, na-na, no)
So get your fracking hat on, and drill in deep (sha, na-na, na-na)
Any cash you find, you get to keep (sha-na, na-na, no)
Boys and girls, ready to blow (sha, na-na, na-na)
All bottled up with nowhere to go (sha-na, na-na, no)
Eco warriors are in the loop (sha, na-na, na-na)
Weaponizing tomato soup (sha-na, na-na, no)
Hey, now
Who you gonna be now?
What you gonna do now
When the lights go down?
Hey, now
Where you gonna run now
Before the setting sun now?
Where you gonna go now?
Hey, now
Who you gonna be now?
What you gonna do now (sha, na-na, na-na)
When the lights go down? (Sha-na, na-na, no)
Hey, now (sha, na-na, na-na)
Where you gonna run now (sha-na, na-na, no)
Before the setting sun now? (Sha, na-na, na-na)
Where you gonna go now? (Sha-na, na-na, no)
(Sha-na, na-na, no)
