Inside a Swill Bucket

from Beat Nostalgia by Captain Polaroid

/

lyrics

You're putting your faith in the hands of a stranger.
Who's posing as God in the form of a writer?
Put your hands up now!
As Orwell said 'advertising is the rattling of a stick inside a swill bucket'
Put your hands up now!
Put your hands up now!
You are the liar of this town.

When a teenager kills someone in the name of his country
he's heralded as a saint, the nation's hero.
Stick your hands up now!
You are the criminal of this town.

The newspapers are always adamant that they're reporting for you,
about a country swamped with violence,
about a country swamped with news.
You don't call yourself a patriot
and you're not a violent man
but if you catch the cunts responsible
they will feel your iron hand.
They will fear your iron hand.
