take down the union jack
it clashes with the sunset
and put it in the attic
with the emperor's old clothes
(same chords)
when did it fall apart
sometime in the eighties
when the good and the great
gave way to the greedy and the mean
Britain isnt cool you know
its really not that great
its not a proper country
it doesnt even have a patron's say
its just an economical union thats past its sell by date
gilbert and george are taking a piss on it
gilbert and george ar taking a piss
what could be more british then heres a picture of my bum
gilbert and george are taking a piss
