Tijuana brass on a sunny day

It's only one hours drive from LA

Crying on the doorstep of the UK

Screaming to the world let me in

or can you let me out?



A burning car in a cul de sac

Jeering youths like a Zulu war

It's ok as long as we stay in a pack

Tearing up a carriage on a railroad track

We carry the flag and the tools of the trade

You can't buy these they're mostly home made

VW badges torn out as souvenirs

Gonna shrink them put them

on a stick outside my door

Oh wonderful world



There's well known politician

In a doorway sitting with an out stretched hand

Thought he had a dream for the nation

But tried too hard to be king of this land

He was gonna plug their lives back in

With a single stroke of his hand

Rap trap rat race now they throw it in your face

Hey buddy can you spare us a dime?



So have your head and join the masses

Don't know why but it's the thing to do

And if one brave soul stands up to be counted

Then we can all stand up and be counted too

Anger dripping onto your cheek

How can the human race be so weak?

Metropolis economy laughing at monogamy

All ending in tears

And one big bang



I've had too much to drink

I've had too much to smoke

Now reality just a pantomime distorted into one big haze

Comatose and blinded

I'll get round to doing something one of these days
