  • Mate, I'm zonked absolutely spent
    I think I'm gonna give my eyes up for lent
    I'll use my sockets to stock stones instead
    And with an icy cold stare, I'll hide bones in your bed

    Mate, please accept this invitation, so I can take you away
    'cause there's a one in forty thousand chance
    That asteroid apophis will collide
    With the earth in less than twenty years, oh my god
    Roll up for the knees up business

    Instead of staring at your stella desperately for inspiration
    Belt up and quiver at your indignation
    I ain't saying anything that could be construed as an apology
    There's another case study for anthropology

    I know, let's announce embargos and denounce our far foes
    Ingrowing egos a syntax he knows
    It's just distance that separates us
    Or are we really all ethnocentric-ally inclined?

    Mate, what the fuck are you on about?
    This is a draconian law, I protest, I protest
    The herd is rowdy, the squad is vexed
    The herd is rowdy, the squad is vexed Writer/s: CHRIS BATTEN, LIAM RORY CLEWLOW, ROBERT ROLFE, ROUGHTON REYNOLDS
