lifted from his recent well received solo album, the jarvis cocker record, this up and at’em hard rocking track could quite easily get some interesting reaction.
as the simple cover art prints the complete lyrical content, i thought it best i share these bitter words of modern world vitriol with you.
bearing in mind recent news items about the uk love for fat saturated meals, and the lack of physical exercise allowed during school hours, i just wonder if jarvis is going to take up the challenge a la jamie oliver and school meals.
go on jarvis, your country needs you.
the lyrics :
last night i had a little altercation – they wobbled menacingly beneath the yellow street light: it became a situation. they wanted my brand new pghone with all the pictures of the kids and the wife. a struggle ensued, and the fat children took my life. “fat children took my life. oh”
well, some passers-by took me to the station. the police force were elsewheer puitting bullets in some guys head for no particular reason. so i died in the back of the cab but i’ll be back to haunt them. this thing does not end gere: my spirit walks the streets of tottenham singing “fat children took my life. oh”
oh, the parents are the problem, giving birth to maggots without sense to become flies. so pander to your pampered little princess – of such enormous size. oh.
