[00:10.45]
[04:35.48][04:08.14][02:46.04][01:23.53] Whoa, give me the words, give me the words
[04:43.76][04:16.30][02:53.60][01:31.78] That tell me nothing
[04:47.94][04:20.45][02:58.18][01:36.12] Dear England
[04:49.30][04:21.91][02:59.56][01:37.22] Whoa, give me the words, give me the words
[04:57.46][04:30.16][03:07.38][01:45.55] That tell me nothing
[01:49.48] They say God save the queen, Britannia rules the waves
[01:52.84] Britannia's in my genes, but Britannia called us slaves
[01:56.27] Britannia made the borders, cause Britannia's forces came
[01:59.70] Britannia lit the match, but Britannia fears the flame
[02:03.14] Where blood stains the pavement, tears stain a cheek
[02:06.44] And privilege is threatened, the fear reigns supreme
[02:09.84] Where bankers are earning, from burning and looting
[02:13.30] The nervous are shooting, search for solutions
[02:17.03] I shed a tear for the father in Birmingham
[02:19.02] Quick swerve of the car and it murdered them
[02:20.80] In Tottenham the apartments were burning
[02:22.52] And nobody came just arson is circling
[02:23.97] All wanna be down till TVs get robbed like jewels on the queens crown
[02:27.41] They say now no cause for a rebound
[02:29.06] See now they call me a fool cause I speak out
[02:30.81] People are humans, not mindless animals
[02:32.43] This violent tyrannical system is fallable
[02:33.84] Hand in a looter the minute you see 'em
[02:35.80] But the biggest looters are the British museum
[02:37.47] This happened here and you think its a accident
[02:39.35] Just relax as we slip into fascism
[02:41.06] And the fear gets drilled into your hearts
[02:42.87] But remember these children are all ours
[03:11.62] If a policeman can kill a black man where he found him
[03:15.05] A soldier can kill an Afghan in the mountains
[03:18.72] A petty thief can get ransacked from his housing
[03:22.16] While the bankers are lounging
[03:23.86] That's my surroundings
[03:25.56] Took land, no one in your family has heard of
[03:28.98] Before you sleep, whisper the mantra you learnt cause
[03:32.36] Never will there be a day that cameras are turned off
[03:35.77] Who runs this country, Cameron or Murdoch?
[03:39.50] Who's the government, a government that can't govern
[03:41.37] Can't you figure it's ways bigger than Mark Duggan
[03:42.98] Bigger than Smiley, bigger than Jean Charles
[03:44.78] Hundreds are dead not one killer is on trial
[03:46.39] Just a familiar sound of hysteria
[03:47.86] Bombs over Libya but not this area
[03:49.37] Downing Street I can find villains
[03:51.24] Cut education, privatise prisons
[03:52.90] Surprised by theft when it's organised
[03:54.50] But mass immorality is normalised
[03:56.11] Assumptions surrounding the looting of London
[03:58.02] But this is a system consumed by consumption
[03:59.65] Yea it happened here and you think its a accident
[04:01.37] Just relax as we slip into fascism
[04:03.20] And the fear gets drilled into your hearts
[04:05.11] But remember these children are all ours
