Burn the Flag 02:42
lyrics
buy track
Take back the streets in anger At the public apathy Ignorance animates the nation And gags the majority You're marching, we're fighting Now we're hungry to be seen and heard You don't vote but you scream in protest Your democracy is quite absurd And we will stand our ground until you learn That we are not a danger to the world We're merely players in the game of life A game that you call burn the flag Switch off the TV in anger At the empty slogan fest Opinion for opinion's sake No debate just a shouting test We're marching, you're shouting The real world is not as simple as that The ability to make it seem so Manipulates the working class Chorus It's a quest for a new utopia Can Jerusalem be builded here? There's a place in the new world order For those who face their fears Our rights as citizens are dearly bought And you enjoy the freedom that we fight for Yet burn the flag

Dogs Actually 01:57
lyrics

One winter day we were bored down at the park We had a bark and listened to it Echo back from the lonely garden walls The empty shadows of our owners An alley beckoned, we reckoned we could feckle Something to do for entertainment We tipped a bin, then Patch said ‘let’s see Tim’! He’ll have a break and we can sing that… A dog is for life and not just for Christmas If she was my wife I'd poison her biscuits We're man's best friends, we're with you to the end We’re DOGS, ACTUALLY! DOGS, ACTUALLY! We’ll have a laugh, and maybe go the caff A chilli barm will keep the cold out Then Patch said ‘Tim, have you seen that bint?’ He said ‘she heard that: she’s behind you!’ We’re DOGS, ACTUALLY! DOGS, ACTUALLY! Remember when, she smelled that funny smell Above the smell that we all smell when She sprays that stuff, tries to hides that she’s so rough A faded icon of temptation I know she thinks we’re vermin But we’re not the ones wearing fake ermine We’ve got fleas, she’s got STDs From Friday nights spent on her knees We’re DOGS, ACTUALLY! DOGS, ACTUALLY!

If I Die Tonight 03:39
lyrics

Would it bring me peace tonight The wisdom of the years Soothe the pain of growing old And end those nagging fears Would it let me live those dreams in death That I've only dreamed in life If I die tonight Would it free me from the past The chains of memory Liberate the child inside To be what he could be Would it let me always be my best Better than I’ve been in life If I die tonight Would it lay my heart to rest Amidst the bleaching bones End the quest to pass the test And find the place called home Would it let me live an endless life In pleasure more than pain If I die tonight Though I’m mournful sometimes I confess I know I’ll come through this test At best, irresistible Though I’m searching for a way from this mess I know I won’t find it in death Life is all we have
