IDLES - I'm Scum

Hey, hey
I'm council house and violent
I'm laughing at the tyrants
I'm sleeping under sirens
Whilst wondering where the time went
I'm scum, I'm scum, yeah
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

I sing at fascists 'til my head comes off
I am Dennis Skinner's molotov
I'm lefty, I'm soft
I'm minimum wage job
I am a mongrel dog
I'm just another cunt
I'm scum, I'm scum, yeah
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

This snowflake's an avalanche

Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long long while I'm known as
Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long old while I'm known as scum
I'm scum

Spit in your percolator
I am procrastinator
I over-tip the waiter
Sarcastic amputator
'Cause I'm scum
I'm scum, yeah
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey

I don't care about the next James Bond
He kills for country, queen and god
We don't need another murderous toff
I'm just wondering where the high street's gone
'Cause I'm scum
I'm scum, yeah
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
This snowflake's an avalanche

Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long long while I'm known as
Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long old while I'm known as scum
For a long old while I'm known as scum
For a long old while I'm known as scum
For a long old while I'm known as scum
