Subhumans - British Disease lyrics
[Subhumans - British Disease lyrics]
Hatred in the hearts of the young population
Riots in the streets of
The "civilised" nation
Was it the poverty? Was it the police?
No - it's the British disease
The inbred snobbery the patriot law
Violence and robbery the state declares war
The youth of today with a broken voice
Have got something to say -
They ain't got a choice
Racist police - backed by the state
Wipe out the ghetto and build up the hate
All the wrong answers all the wrong ideas
The riot lasts a day
But the problem lasts for years
The great British public
They can't understand
Why should there be riots
In this civilised land?
Why is the country being
Pulled to it's knees?
Ignorance is the British disease
Ignorance is the British disease
Ignorance is the British disease
Ignorance is your disease
Ignorance and apathy ignorance and bigotry
You found it all so easy to
Ignore the people who complained
And let their anger rise in flames
You thought this country was so great
That nobody could ever hate the
Way the system treated them
And then you wondered why they
Burnt your buildings down
Riots in the streets of
The "civilised" nation
Was it the poverty? Was it the police?
No - it's the British disease
The inbred snobbery the patriot law
Violence and robbery the state declares war
The youth of today with a broken voice
Have got something to say -
They ain't got a choice
Racist police - backed by the state
Wipe out the ghetto and build up the hate
All the wrong answers all the wrong ideas
The riot lasts a day
But the problem lasts for years
The great British public
They can't understand
Why should there be riots
In this civilised land?
Why is the country being
Pulled to it's knees?
Ignorance is the British disease
Ignorance is the British disease
Ignorance is the British disease
Ignorance is your disease
Ignorance and apathy ignorance and bigotry
You found it all so easy to
Ignore the people who complained
And let their anger rise in flames
You thought this country was so great
That nobody could ever hate the
Way the system treated them
And then you wondered why they
Burnt your buildings down
