You're looking for a candidate
A cadet in uniform
Who will only answer yes
When you address his wardrobe
Who will march in line
And collect his benefits cheque
You aren't looking for
a rebel yet
Or someone with self-respect
You only want a jumbo jet
Or a dreadnought ship
Yes and you tell me I could make it yet
But you sure ain't looking for me
You want a hero
You want a public school cheerio
Or you want some young bullio
Ready with his rugby vest
You don't need a shakespeare
You don't need Some word smith
I can take it from the sound of it
You sure ain't looking for me
I better face facts
Or else have some heart attacks
That Britain is a farce act
And I'm not fit to play the fool
It's just case of tact
To be in school and follow the rules
You'll grow up to be a good citizen
To conform to all the bitterness
And the mocking humiliation
Of the class structure imposed on you
There's no escaping migration
What about reverse refugees?
Those fleeing discrimination
From the hands of British fools
The idiots in charge of institutions
Who govern to quell revolutions
By keeping the intelligentsia
Locked away with factory tools
And those of the upper classes
With all the money and wine glasses
Who only dain to play at farces
With their idiotic public school boy rules
Imposed on us through many chances
Seen on the playing fields or at dances
In which the social graces of life are schooled
How to beat your opponent with sheer speed
How to better them at greed
How to take and to succeed
How failure is but a weed
An unwanted look at nothingness
An emptiness, a bottomlessness
Some hole you never wish to go down
For there nothing can be won
