lyrics

Leave a mousetrap down at your flat door
Reading Mao out loud to a landlord
See I doubt that you're down for the class war
You'd sell us out for an EU passport
Your plan's sneering and sideways glances
Got a hedgehog on the highway's chances
Lightweight stances, hacks not fact-checking
Faker than lies of Iraq's weapons
I was wearing black denim back then n
I was reading Vlad Lenin, What Is To Be Done while you man guessing
We got the gift of the answers
No opportunistic grifters or chancers
All Communists lift a fist for the Panthers
Got another fist for the bankers
Oligarch hitlist, check off one
Gotta start with this Chekhov's gun


[Chorus]
Liberals and landlords
Pissing me off
Ohh, they fucking do
Liberals and landlords, ohh


Whether Trump or Tony Blair in em,
I'll thump a load of Aryans
Get drunk and throw a chair at em,
I'm gonna go Ric Flair on em
A lumpenproletarian, you know I'm no sectarian
I'm flowing so Aquarian and going Covid variant
Black Bloc masked up, no Corona scaring em
Masked up on the bus but now no-one goes to stare at em
...can we normalise a bally now?
Can we organise an aggy crowd
To the graveyard to pull Maggie out?
Why'd you wanna do that, fucking laugh innit
Derail their gravy-train upper-class ticket
Coming last-minute like it's Fergie's United
Politicians tryna keep the workers divided
Spineless and toothless, right-wing deluded
Labour-right types are frighteningly stupid
Truth is they're funded by arms deals
Who's spinning more than a cartwheel

See these liberal bootlicking, bluetick gollums
No way to differentiate UKIP from em
Got a common cause with em, call it Rule Britannia
I've got comrades in Emilia-Romagna
Got comrades in Milanese squats
Chop chop that's that guillotine block
Lock Stock and 2 million cops?
Hotbox cop-shops, hit em with rocks
Known since the days of the Hartcliffe Riots
Slowly decayed on some arsenic diets
Try it, from Toxteth to Tottenham and St Pauls
Light up a copper's car on fire in the rainfall
Bricks in a cop's eye,
Brixton to Moss Side
Bristol, the cops lie
Brought tools all to harm, all really calm
At the Broadwater Farm...
