Lyrics
0:18Now we've entered new Britannia
0:28Lord don't tell me
0:32Love won't work
0:36I've seen my face
0:45Of course I know my place
0:56Yes I started life retarded
1:05Voices told me take your chances
1:13I run through all the things
1:17I've said and done
1:20Is it too late to find someone
1:24I lie in wait to be undone
1:31By anyone
1:35In bars from Perth to Hampstead we crowd
1:44And canonize the stupid
1:50Still proud the pavements full
1:54The praise is loud
1:56At last a victim well endowed
2:01With every quality allowed
2:08The truth will out
2:27Some thrive we try to keep ourselves alive
2:33Strike first the rich must be deprived
2:37Or high gate armies will arrive
2:44I've seen the right
3:13Love won't work
3:17We've lost the urge
3:23Love won't work
3:26Now I come first
3:32Love won't work
3:35We've lost the urge
3:41Love won't work
3:44Now I come first
Now we've entered new Britannia Lord don't tell me Love won't work I've seen my face Of course I know my place Yes I started life retarded Voices told me take your chances I run through all the things I've said and done Is it too late to find someone I lie in wait to be undone By anyone In bars from Perth to Hampstead we crowd And canonize the stupid Still proud the pavements full The praise is loud At last a victim well endowed With every quality allowed The truth will out Some thrive we try to keep ourselves alive Strike first the rich must be deprived Or high gate armies will arrive I've seen the right Love won't work We've lost the urge Love won't work Now I come first Love won't work We've lost the urge Love won't work Now I come first
