Subhumans - British Disease lyrics

rate me

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 its 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
