Robby and Rupe, who'll we'll do it to next?
Who can we buy? Who can we impress?
I bought a football team, I got the money it's so obscene.
This is what the country thinks you might think it fucking stinks,
it doesn't matter what you think. It's sold you and fight we must.
Power of the press, the nation thinks through me.
Power of the press; don't believe what you read.
Rupert's got shaggy pants and money in the bank.
Robert's got socialist clothes, where's his conscience? No one knows.
Robby and Rupe, who'll we'll do it to next?
Who can we buy? Who can we impress?
I just bought a football team, I got the money it's so obscene.
Power of the press, the nation thinks through me.
Power of the press; don't believe what you read.
Rupert's got shaggy pants and money in the bank.
Robert's got socialist clothes, where's his conscience? No one knows.
