Pagan Wanderer Lu - The Great British Public Becomes Self-Aware lyrics

Like magpies with gold cards we buy Intelligently designed By the gods of commerce To spend until it hurts Ruled out Yahweh with a telescope And with him any hope Of an afterlife So spend as if you're never going to die This used to be a great country But we had to rob a lot of people to get there And there's always a danger That the great British public will become self-aware Use drama alone to decide The battles we should fight Road safety facts Don't bump terrorist attacks And we lose more jobs to ignorance Than we ever will to immigrants How does electric work? It's just planets in the wires If they replace manual workers with robots And replace office workers with software It wouldn't lessen the danger That the great british public would become self aware There's nothing splendid about isolation There's no closed systems in this world There's no such thing as too much information It's what you don't know that can hurt The feudal system funds terrorism And so do pirate dvds We fought fascists Now there's a danger Let's not elect some out of fear
