So This Is Great Britain? Lyrics - Singles - Holloways

So this is Great Britain 

And welcome aboard 

A sinking ship that's full of shit 

And someone nicked the oars 

With failing false economy 

And anti-punk autonomy 

Our once unique Identity's 

Been washed from our shores 

This is Great Britain 

And these are our whores 

David and Victoria 

There's hope for us all 

You can rule Britannia 

The media will marry you 

They build you up and knock you down 

Just like the Berlin Wall 

In a land of hope and glory 

Do we really rule the waves? 

The truth is a different story 

We're all just a bunch of slaves 

Yeah, this is Great Britain 

So let's raise a jar 

Just look at Georgie Best 

And how it got him so far 

The prince of pleasure lost his crown 

By getting high and getting down 

The alcoholic anti-hero's 

Visibly scarred 

Come on Great Britain 

Let's sleep around 

Sex is so much funnier 

You better spread it around 

It really is infectious 

And your soul is nothing precious 

So grab some meat and treat your loins 

To that by which they're bound 

In a land of hope and glory 

Do we really rule the waves? 

The truth is a different story 

We're all just a bunch of slaves 

Just a bunch of slaves, just a bunch of slaves 

We'll soon be state Britain 

If our best friends have their way 

Just another star upon the flag across the waves 

We'll soon be state Britain 

If our best friends have their way 

Just another star upon the flag across the waves 

In a land of hope and glory 

Do we really rule the waves? 

The truth is a different story 

We're all just a bunch of slaves 

Just a bunch of slaves, just a bunch of slaves
