Take 06:38
Dismiss your stereo This is the overthrow Fire awaits us all Take back control. Love who you know. Halluscenario The crew is overboard! Take back control. "Kill the prisoners!" - the absent saboteurs. "Funds will freely flow!" Maintain the status quo Or take back control.

Back 03:16
Back in the day When England was for England was for English What was England? Who can say? Back with all the Christmas magic Sweet nostalgia and with none of the pain. We sailed away Free market hubs Still smoke in pubs Prescription drugs Meaningful jobs for equitable pay. Back in the day With Churchill's red fog Insurance dogs Farage's grog George Osborne's drugs Preferred meanings of the word 'gay'. lortnoc kcab ekaT Reclaim a sense of place that's not defined by an ever-present grey. "Make England Great" With *flower-girls* "BRING BACK RED SQUIRRELS!" Well-attended car boot sales in light rain. We advocate resistance to repression Cast by apparatus of this quasi-fascist state. There's no mandate Free market hubs Can't smoke in pubs Fox-hunting cubs Meaningless jobs (till death) in the UK.

Control 10:22
Sail away to an island state Let us reclaim our identity Diminished space, throw it all away Independence day but we're still not free We're all watching and being watched. Sail away to an island state Sail away, let us live again Give us this day, our two minutes of hate A rainy place with lines of battery hens We're all watching and being watched You'll see me watching and being robbed. Interpret all attacks = false flags Post-facts for elections.
