lyrics

I’m talking rubbish in my mother tongue
As I gently drift into a drunken stupor
Surpassing gregarious life and constant inhibition and a weekends waffling about a humpthermometer
Look into the microphone and talk to Jesus

No match for the monster
No match for the monster
No match for the monster
No match for the monster
No match for the kingdom
All it takes is one wrong move......

I’m sick of feeling sick on Sundays like a dogmatic rage lying dormant in an ecological cage.
I experience repugnance and shame when I think about the atrocities committed by the British Empire
We will become what they want us to be

No match for the monster
No match for the monster
No match for the monster
No match for the monster
No match for the kingdom
All it takes is one false move......

Some people don’t care some people just stare
They glamorise the empire
They glamorise the empire
They glamorise the empire
They glamorise the empire
