Lyrics British Bombs - Declan McKenna

Great snakes are we moving already
Good gravy did you say it cost a penny or two
For you
Well talking bout the bad starts
My baby brother has already got a gas mask
It's a good old fashioned landslide
Killing with your hands tied
In the homemade rope
Set sail babe we read it in the mail - no hope now
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's good what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
Why
Does it seem
A fever dream
For all
The call you made to me you said
I fear
One day each year
For worry
We shall remember the dead
And we'll remember the dead
So they know that we're sorry
And then carry on
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
How could it be the money it's the vote that matters to me
You say you're hungry but you won't eat the caraway seed
Does it matter in the wreckage what should you say?
I found myself a little peckish last Tuesday
This is what you signed up for, no questions
Reckon we could offer peace time from weapons conventions
It's on the table
But It's no game can't you hear all our worries for fear
Carry on
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
It's a good old fashioned landslide
Killing with your hands tied
In the homemade rope
Set sail babe we read it in the mail - no hope now
It's a total fucking whitewash
For the people that we might squash
Ammo from home soil
Set sail for wherever the fuck got oil this time
And if it's not a fucking war crime
It's a total waste of your time
It's getting so much worse
Get real kid your country's been at war since birth now
And if it's not a fucking outrage
What's it all about babe?
Now it's one on one
Great Britain's gonna tell ya where it all went wrong
And then carry on
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
Great way to fool me again hun
Great acting, it's great what you tell em
Great Britain won't stand for felons
Great British bombs in the Yemen
