Traitors Lyrics by Benefits

Nails

2020

[Verse 1]
I'm surrounded by red white and blue, but I stand out
And I'm the treacherous one
I'm the shit, just for wanting people not to get hurt, not to get ridiculed, not to get spat at in the street, or pissed on in alleyways, because they've got no where else to sleep
But ok, ok, ok, yeah yeah
I'm the disgrace
I'm the shit, the national fucking danger
I'm a public menace, the snowflake
Idiotic rhetoric pumping into our brains
Boozed up, dumbed down, clown town
You pander to a non-existent past
Presumed arrogance
Sausage class
Sausage class
Stiffened back
The rigid frame of the victorious fascist
A new found spring in your goose step
A new found spring in your goose step
A new found spring in your goose step
Yet I'm the scum, the unpatriotic one
Faithless, feckless, all bark, no bite
A deserter from my own fucking birthright
I'm the betrayer, I'm the shite
I'm bringing this country down, this northern clown
And I get it, I get it, I really fucking do
I lost, get over it
I lost, get over it
Rub my face into the fucking mud
Plaster it on billboards going up to the sky
"You lost, ha ha fucking ha"
Rule Britannia playing on the radio twenty four hours a day
Union flags hung in every street
Spitfires fly past
Homeless pile up
No one gives a fuck
No one gives a fuck
We get the future you deserve
We get the future you deserve
We get the future you deserve
We get the future you deserve

[Refrain]
Traitors
Traitors
Traitors

[Verse 2]
Sell your guitars
Pawn your clarinet
Fuck your creativity
Fuck your dreams
The new normal doesn't need entertainment
It needs only work
Viable work
Retrain
Stop moaning
Get a fucking job making fucking flags
Shut up now
Shut up now
Shut up
We get the future you deserve
We get the future you deserve
We get the future you deserve

[Refrain]
Traitors
Traitors

[Verse 3]
I scroll through endless camera phone footage
Racists on public transport
Screaming into faces
Scaring kids
Wide eyed
Bushy tailed
Full of fuck
"I'm loud and proud, it is what is is, I say what I like, and I like what I say"
Etc, etc, etc ok
"It's called freedoms of speech mate, look it up, look it up, look it up, look it up"
Bullshit goggle eyes
Bullshit goggle eyes
Bullshit goggle eyes
You're alright Jack
You're alright Jack
You're alright Jack

[Refrain]
Traitors
Traitors
Traitors
Traitors
Traitors
