Great Britain, fantastic Britain, incredible Britain You're making me sad How many lives in the name, and religion how do you fare When parliament crumbles, like fantastic hash And the heroes are on ****** Dying in the street But are they heroes? Poor Britain, lonely Britain, disparaging Britain Your lights are all dim Atheist populace, defending Christian beliefs and shaming Islam with wild generalisations The BNP are a joke or a Greek tragedy and I laugh through acerbic tears It's pitiable Bleak Britain, brisk Britain, despairing Britain Are you happy with yourself? Fight in foreign lands, maim those trivial children and keep that payola rolling, we depend on death Complex industry, the military it is, and we follow Always follow, follow follow, follow Britain, Britain, Britain Blindly patriotic

All hate groups are sordid but as people we are all equal. In tough times we must teach love. We must preach empathy. We must learn our history. We could be great, with knowledge.
