white man went to africa with rifles and bibles
came back in the 80s cos he's spiteful
with a new recital
a vaxine - he spread it all around
every hut in every village every school in every town
but they didn't get cured - they just got aids
i said they didn't get cured - they just got aids!
and soon it magically appeared in every place a poor person was -
so watch your smirking cuz, aint you wondered who's been merking us?
who put the crack in the ghetto?
who put that crap in netto?
why charge that much for lego?
why can't we let go?
they give us pepsi, cack or coca cola so we settle - get me!
so get the right bus, the right bus is priceless
unite despite they vices and show this world who's the nicest
yo we're the nicest - ask dildo's rollo -
if i was your skygod i might smite bono...
thanks for all the aids!
(and the bums and the nuns and the guns and the bombs on the trains)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the lies and wives of the guys who've been dying in spades)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the crap tv, and for me, and for brining on the plague)
thanks for all the aids!
so what you do is...
you get some shite white rock bands
with trite white wristbands
outside are mormons
a fright of christians
the drool in the corners of their mouths is glistening
you can't hear shit for the whistling
above all the people: and undead beatle
a hair transplant and a junkie.
word!
come friendly bombs and rain on keane
and anyone that's ever been, like, featured in the nme
and that includes me!
see the world bank don't do shit for free
so read "debt dropped" read they see thee
and thee owe they
and they own thee
so they got all your water mate
yo they decide your daughter's fate
you can't turn piss into wine
you can't rub pennies in a wound and expect it to be fine
there are no diamonds in the mines -
cos we teefed the lot
so i'm a be on top of the pops singing...
thanks for all the aids!
(and the bums and the nuns and the guns and the bombs on the trains)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the floods and the blood and the drugs and the banning all the raves)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the asian flu, and for you, and for making us slaves)
thanks for all the aids!
oh pray for me methodist, cos i fear the rapture
c c comin' atcha
like cleopatra
oh you could never capture
the donovan's stature
i'm evil on the mike like margret thatcher
ook!
made you look, bombs like a nuke,
i'm truer than the gospel according to my mate luke -
it says here
that the skygod wants to kill you if you're queer
or if you're a jew or you're an arab
a miner in a hole
or if you are a dog because you haven't got a soul
or if you are a dead baby
(ha ha!)
you should count your stems and see how lucky you are.
so if your kids are on ritalin you are
twelve times worse than the worst crack whore
i can say this cos i'm sure - you aint shit
we've been advised to quit, but we ain't taking the piss when we say
thanks for all the aids!
(and the bums and the nuns and the guns and the bombs on the trains)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the lies and guys with no lives who've been dying in spades)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the crap tv, and for me, and for making us slaves)
thanks for all the aids!
thanks for all the aids!
(and the bums and the nuns and the guns and the bombs on the trains)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the floods and the drugs and the bloods and the banning all the raves)
thanks for all the aids!
(and the avian flu, and for you, and for making us slaves)
thanks for all the aids!
