Because I Got British Spirit

I eat my toasts, while I drink my tea
I feel ashamed of Churchill, Blair, and Cameron
Mocking the degeneration of my generation
While I curse the so - called Royal Family
(Because I got british spirit)
I was born and raised poor, struggling in the working class,
But always with a natural touch of aristocracy
I hate the MI6, can't handle chopsticks
The sun makes me sick, but I love the sea
(Because I got british spirit)

I'm always making puns, the worst ones you can imagine
But the worst they are, the better it is, because that's the point, my friend
It's our unique sense of humour, the reason why I mock everything and everyone,
Even myself, but that's also a trick, a wise disguise, and I don't expect you to understand
Actually, I don't want you to understand, you are probablt someone I can't stand
(Because I got british spirit)

I love football, specially the Premier League
But I don't give a damn about the FA, or anything they have to say
I'm still in grief over Gary Speed,
And just like Brian Clough, I really, really hate the beach
Just like Damon Albarn, I hate all the morons who spend their vacations in Greece
Because that's just not british, and because
(Because I got british spirit)

I love castles, I wish we were still a empire
But I burn this damn flag now, because now it means nothing but shame
Industrial revolution killed it all, there could be no better name for a band than The Fall
Divided and conquered, we lost it all
Beaten up by everyone, except obviously by the french,
Too bad we could not get rid of them in 1873
Due to lack of excuses, I will just blame the sea
(Because I got british spirit)

By the way, even with the tunnel
These damn french, we can still hear their annoying accent
And smell their putrid stench
It gives me a reason to complain, and I have to complain,
About something, anything, usually about the rain,
I have to complain all the time, to distract myself, to entertain myself
It's just impossible to avoid boredom, so I will just complain, even f in vain
(Because I got british spirit)
And it's post - modern age, so I am too hopeless and too lazy,
And won't do anything, just watch it all go crazy,
Just leave me be, with my beer
Just shut up, and leave me be
I don't give a damn, nothing ever last forever,
So mate, I know it's all just a mistake,
But whatever.....
(Because I got british spirit)
