You taught me so well to be an idiot

I almost became every word that you said

And everyday you gave to me

Special thoughts, lessons free

Underwhelmed by your generosity

I quickly began to compensate

So forgive me if I sound disinterested

Why should I comply with this?

So why should I conform to this?

So why should I comply with this?

So why should I conform to this?

When I stand with the mike in my hand

A love of the land I always question those

Who are in command

I'm taking nothing from the troops

In their big black boots

Got you jumping through hoops

And setting fire to your roots

You paramilitary groups you don't scare me

Mess with the posse and they might have to tear me

Off ya, check me, know what I mean?

And I don't give a fuck about COMBAT-18. [12.1]

It seems simple the first time they get you

'cause children are all born the same

And they play together till someone tells them lies

And they got me this way a long time ago

But this time they won't get me, no

Roll with the team

Turn on the high beam

Expose the lies washin' up downstream

You see your BNP you ain't shit to me. [12.2]

Loud mixed-Briton, proud of my ancestry

Get back to jack to that
