England - Jehst

We gotta stack chips and that’s the way it is yo

Living in the city is turning Billy schizo-

Phrenic, it’s a blood-money epidemic

Kids rock Akademiks but they’re not academic

Better stop for a second, take a look around you

Demons surround you, evil is all powerful

Love is up against the ropes, it’s God’s downfall

Lucifer reigns — the future remains doubtful

The gloves are off — bare knuckle for the last round

Listen to the war drum, hear how my heart sounds

My fists pound the asphalt, as the living dead inhale the crack smoke

Squeeze blood out a stone just to make cash flow — streets retarded

The daily news is too much for the weak hearted

Deeply depressed artistic arsonist, sparkin spliffs

Addicts jack the pharmacist’s

The devil lives in the Houses of Parliament

Devil worship or rebel disarmament

Is the main agenda for the parliamentary member

Send in the Toxic Avenger

Mutant anti-hero, stack dinero

Move with a band of bandoleros at sub-zero

Temperature — New clothes for the Emperoror

Watch how you walk, these kids will put an end to ya

The cross-country adventurer

Ventin' the pent up aggression, when I enter the session

Adolescents hold weapons, and shut down your pantomime

Draw heat — 9 milli degrees Fahrenheit

England!

Where the smackheads jackin up

Crackheads crackin up

You’re back up or backin up?

You’ll leave with your hands cuffed

Po-po bustin blocks, Old folk punchin clocks

Yo it don’t fuckin stop

Police stoppin me with the P.O.T

Race hate is growin so their votin for the BNP

Brits in Guantanamo, dreamin of bein free

Fuck this country, it ain’t doin shit for me!

Look at the history books, peep the bloodshed

Karma is coming, you’ll see the streets run red

RedRum!

That’s the way that the money’s made

The Church of England invested in the slave-trade

Trace it back to the bank where you put your wage

Built on the blood of slaves and stolen sugar cane

England!

And there’ll be toil for the royal blood

Spillin on the soil, where they’re drillin for the oil

Got us killin for the buck — but we don’t give a fuck

Nobody wanna work, we just wanna live it up

Bring a cup, fill it up

With the blood sweat and tears too

I got no love for these ideals you adhere to

Dear England, please confess your sins now

I see police tape, when I’m takin my bins out

A dead baby got dropped down the rubbish chute

Please don’t bum me out, cause I just bunned a zoot

Don’t look at me funny blood, it’s the fuckin truth!

You don’t believe me, I guess it’s too much for you

A girl got abducted, and chopped up in Catford

Racists with ice-picks?

That shit is backward

The news is confusin — it’s all manufactured

Pop-propoganda — political actors

Political factions and critical factors

Get kidnapped and sympathise with your captors

Trapped in the capital, death before dishonour

Troops terrorised by suicide bombers

And I wanna vomit, cause they’re blowin up buses

It’s rough in the streets, kids growing up cussin

Get crushed in the rush hour

Police have got too much power, now they move like a menace

Ask Jean Charles De Menezes, in the heavens

They put seven in his head and sent him back to the essence

They got us living in fear

You get treated like a criminal if you’re Muslim with a beard

24 hour drinkin, I’m sippin a beer

But some don’t know their limits, it’s a little severe

The liquor is here, the drugs are here

The football thugs are here, you could get mugged in here

So plug your ear if you don’t wanna hear the screams

From the dungeon to the Huddersfield of dreams

I feel the heat of Big Brother’s eyes on my back

He’s watchin how I move and the way that I act

He’s watching what I read and the products that I buy

My bank balance?

That’s the price of the property-rise

My political allegiance?

I’m angry!

I didn’t register my Oyster Card — you can’t track me

ID’s compulsory — they got a back door

You’re forced to apply when you renew your passport

It’s hardcore, but that’s life in England

And it goes for the whole United Kingdom

And I still got love for the place where I’m livin

But right now they’re ain’t nothin great about Britain
