Slowly down

Down the river

The one you sold me down

Where all my timbers shiver

You hold them down

And as they're flailing

Yeah as they drown

You say

"Oh look they're waving"

Oh britannia - somehow she was saved

(Britannia) raped by all the slaves, raped all the slaves

Sorry dad

For every single good time that i had

They made it look so bad

Sorry mum

For all the good things that i done

Gave you hope when there was none..

Schools - how can you? Teach that we were saved

Fools, britannia -

Tell me i can live

Ammonia and sieve

My baby's coming with me..

For the outing

From the prison of my mind

No 3 score and 10 wreck

I wont be blind/ly led

This lion by a donkey

Down for the outing

From the prison of your mind

Where pretty ribbons

A wild beast cannot bind

And pretty rhythms can ease a troubled mind

Ease a troubled mind

Lick it til it shines

Many troubled minds round here
