There's a siren ringing loud

a call of distress

it's winding through these streets

making all you people deaf



i think you're hearing fine

just choosing to ignore

the house that wait outside your door

i think your keeping sane

by not keeping score

of the hounds that wait outside your door



this is a fragile situation

an island made of glass

this is an unstable structure

a structure built on class



i think you know full well

just choosing to ignore

the hounds tha wait outside your door

i don't want a stock

in what the future has in store

it's the hounds that wait outside your door



she's back in the chair again

i don't know who put her there

it seems the silent majority spoke

to sway the tory vote



the walls are tumbling down

and madame has the floor

and the hounds that wait outside your door

the apple of your eye

has gone rotten to the core

like the hounds that wait outside your door



ah but you have the answer for

brittania's sinking ship

you need a nice cup of tea

and a stiff upper lip



old blight's goin' down

still you're asking for more

of the hounds that wait outside your door

god save the queen

let the home fires roar

above the hounds that wait outside your door
