lyrics

Ready on your marks now

We’re going to play a game
Split everybody into teams
Down the centre, right and left
The rules change as we go along
No need to think too much
Just try your best

Down behind the bike sheds
And up the garden path
Round and round the mulberry bush
Change is coming change has come
A return to the Golden Age
When everything made sense –
Just get it done

We’re sick of fake news
The media elites
Who want to control us
Who want our missing star

We’re sick of experts
Telling us what to think
We’re sick of statistics
Bring back our missing star

We must all accept that sometimes
Sacrifices must be made

Then swept under the carpet, with the
Missing files, expense reports,
We’ve shredded all the evidence
You didn’t need to know

Mistakes were made

The perfect time for social distance
Wages locked down and apart

Are all the children in their beds?
Change is coming change is now

Now’s not the time for politics

Let’s end all the debates

Let’s all move on

We’re sick of education

Hiding the truth about our past
We held the wealth of nations
The fates of millions in our grasp

We’re-sick-of-disappointment
Red tape and compromise
Bring back the glory
Bring us our missing star

We’re going to level with you
We are where we are
It’s stretched us all to breaking point
Will you, won’t you, will you, won’t..
We’re all in this together
We’re taking back control
Come join the dance

We’re-sick-of betrayal
We want our country back
Bring back the glory
Give us our missing star


Lacrimosa dies illa
Qua resurget ex favilla
Judicandus homo reus
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori
