Manic Street Preachers - Royal Correspondent lyrics

You've been this way since school
Dysfunctional, translucent
Royalty on your wall so desperately mundane

They're inbred baby just like you
But, you'd love the chance to eat their food
Even though it has been chewed

Royal correspondent sad and lonely
Royal correspondent kills her daily

Dream of the Daily Mail it is the Holy Grail
And then the BBC your life would be complete

Build a fountain, wash away the poor
Just as long as your motives are pure
Hold on tight or you just might lose her

Royal correspondent wears their Sunday best
Royal correspondent smarter than the rest

Royal correspondent, smarter than the rest
Royal correspondent, smarter than the rest
Royal correspondent, smarter than the rest
Royal correspondent, smarter than the rest
Smarter than the rest
