Welcome to the UK
We've just quit the EU
Cameras and spies are everywhere
Big Brother is watching us
He's all over, you never know
Quite what he'll do next
Cos espionage's secretive
And promises are broken
All cos we live under a dictator
And for those who ain't a hater
We need a fucking saviour
Or else I'll be in bad behaviour
Think I know who the saviour is
But it ain't any small-town kids
Like me and you, oh
Just give me a mo
Don't beat me with a hoe
Or stuff me in museums just for show
Welcome to the UK
We've just quit the EU
Cameras and spies are everywhere
Big Brother is watching us
He's all over, you never know
Quite what he'll do next
Cos espionage's secretive
And promises are broken
All cos we live under a dictator
And for those who ain't a hater
We need a fucking saviour
Or else I'll cut myself with a shaver
Think I know who the saviour is
But it ain't any small-town kids
Like me and you, oh
Like me and you, oh
I hope I know where
Everyone goes and what
Everyone does, so just
Give me a mo, oh, oh
All cos we live under a dictator
And for those who ain't a hater
We need a fucking saviour
Or else I'll cut myself with a shaver
Think I know who the saviour is
But it ain't any small-town kids
Like me and you, like me and you, oh
All cos we live under a dictator
And for those who ain't a hater
We need a fucking saviour
Or else I'll be in bad behaviour
Think I know who the saviour is
But it ain't any small-town kids
Like you and me, yeah
