There's a gang i've just joined



There's a gang i've just joined



Three million strong you'd agree



Four million strong you'd agree



Enrollment was easy, so easy



Getting out proves to be the difficulty







From land's end to john o'groats



From land's end to john o'groats



They are making ends meet



Mending holes in their coat



Fasting and feasting on bread and margarine



Burning dreams build upon buried hopes







United kingdom - you'd better ring them



You've a solution - you better bring them



United kingdom - united kingdom



You've a solution - you better bring them







Opportunity, i guess they all came and went



Finding it hard



Finding the rent you'll find it funny



With your finger running down



Situations vacant



In school he was an athlete



Now he's not so self-assured



"after all of these o-levels is this my reward?"



There's a silent majority, that's seen and



Never heard from charles i, charles ii



To charles iii







United kingdom - you'd better ring them



You've a solution - you better bring them



United kingdom - united kingdom







This busted, rusted, upper-crusted



Bankrupted done and dusted



No-man-to-be-trusted united kingdom







Proud to stand beneath the union jack?



Happy dealing up a no ace pack?



Polishing black boots



Priming the riot squad



There go i but for the grace of god



Covering up the agony with mindless entertainment



You'll be happy when they're ripping up the pavement



Bringing down the axe on steelworks and foundries



Someone said love knows no boundaries



Close your eyes and think of england



Lie back and think of her







United kingdom - you better ring them



You've a solution - you better bring them
