Systematic abuse on a daily basis
You're a racist (you don't know why?)
Evidence of your intrusion, multiplied by my contusion
You can't suture the future (though you might try)

Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved
Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved

You say there's no black in the union jack but you can't give me a single season why
I say there's no common wealth in the commonwealth 'cause it's the colour of your money matters since the day the country died.

Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved
Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved

Microwaved

And don't you read the papers?
Economics is gonna save us and science never sleeps
Science never sleeps

Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved
Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved

Because we're cut, dried, microwaved
Safe in the knowledge that we'll all be saved

Our stupid lives we'll be better yet,
At least we'll all come clean

Please sir tell me why there's no black superman
KKK kryptonite?
God only makes Caucasian superheroes

Please sir tell me why we stick a man on the moon
When life on earth's so cheap
Son, we gotta do our bit for the world trade deficit.

Please sir tell me why there's so much vagrancy
Layabouts get a job
Well there's an opening for a part-time una-bomber
Please sir tell me why my life's so pitiful
But the future's so bright
Well I'd look ahead but it burns my retinas.

I tried my best, did all that I can.
I don't think I've got a single thing left that I can call my own
Still at the end of the day when all's said and done
The one and only single thing left is that one burning question

What's in it for me?
What's in it for me?
What's in it for me?
(Cause that's what really matters)
What's in it for me me me
What's in it for me me me
What's in it for me me me
(Cause that's what really matters)

Same as the rest?
Convince me I am
You don't need to burn the bridge in my head 'cause I'm out on my own
Still at the end of the day when all's said and done
The one and only single thing left is that one burning question

What's in it for me?

Just get in line 'cause it won't be long
Don't waste my time
Cause there's nothing wrong
No need to fight
Misunderstood
