[Spoken intro]
Carrion devoured by vultures
An instinct led by nature's call
Modest craftsmen of the culture
Say that one size fits us all
A nasty Business had never enhanced us
Sort of truth they'd have us believe
Coke sniffing vicars and kiss and tell chancers
Digging the dirt for us to receive
The cops came knocking rat a tat tat tat
Well we're sure it's nothing but some phones were hacked
A rogue reporter wеnt beyond the pale
But hе acted alone and he was sent to jail...
The initial investigation concluded
No further action was needed job done
Hateful denial but no one deluded
A cozy relationship for every one
Everyone says you know it wasn't me
There was a culture of deniability
Cynical consequence free
Fit and proper persons with no memories...
With no memories...
Oooooh ooh oooohh ooohhh
Rebekah Rebekah could not quite remember
James it turned out had similar recall
Rupert was humbled and terribly sorry
That this sort of thing ever happened at all
The influence he cultivated
In amongst the great and good
Insidious and understated
But everybody understood...
Everybody understood...
Everybody understood...
Everybody understood...
