Heads Down, Thumbs Up

from EP by UNIFORMS

lyrics

All the kids are burning down
Their neighbours to the ground.
Riots are prime time TV.
The bricks and rocks and the petrol bombs
Are how they get their point across,
A point no-one can see.

They feel they've been left behind,
They feel like they just can't find
Their place in "big society".
Maybe it's the unemployment,
The lack of chances,
No role models,
No shortage of experts telling me.
Then who will you believe?

United in name
Got nothing to show.
This Kingdom's fucked,
Light the fuse and watch it blow.
Lose lips sink ships,
We're all going to drown.
Bottoms up, c'est la vie,
It's onwards and down.

We need to start again
Educate, engage our brains
There's more to life than being alive.
Next time it could be you
Watching your neighbourhood
Burn down before your fucking eyes.
Then who will you despise?

United in name
Got nothing to show.
This Kingdom's fucked,
Light the fuse and watch it blow.
Lose lips sink ships,
We're all going to drown.
Bottoms up, c'est la vie,
It's onwards and down.
