The Passage - Angleland 

for fairer sex song of praise angleland special place 
attitude mate to mate 
above rest of human race 
what passes for passion in your eyes keep it wrapped up out of sight 

mincing beef, cigarettes half a bitter, bitter sex oven ready stuff it quick vaccination little prick 
bang bang you're dead chop chop off head 
that's how it's done 
in angleland 

what passes for passion in your eyes keep it wrapped up out of sight 

short of breath, flushing face 
every nerve under strain in position keep it clean missionary make ends meet 
jab jab dunt hurt aye up nice pair 
slag boiler bird 
in angleland 

island folk tidal flow 
into harbour come and go union jack harvest queen 
done our duty, same time next week 
what passes for passion in your eyes keep it wrapped up out of sight
