Plastic Spastic

Plastic spastics on the street
angel faces look so sweet.
An image of passivity
it’s all for charity.

I’ve always known there’ll come a day
patronage will cease,
then we’ll get some peace,
and that we will find a way
to smash those images down.

Only one way to succeed,
we must bite the hands that feed,
and never more be forced to plead
for life and dignity.

I’ve always known there’ll come a day
patronage will cease
then we’ll get some peace,
and that we will find a way
to smash those images down.

Jimmy Saville’s platitudes,
smiling stars whose attitudes
have kept us safely locked away,
well, we’re not goin’a play.

I’ve always known there’ll come a day
patronage will cease
then we’ll get some peace,
and that we will find a way
to smash those images down.

Take a crowbar to each tin,
throw the whole lot in the bin,
and dorb those posters with your brush,
gratitude we will crush.

I’ve always known there’ll come a day
patronage will cease
then we’ll get some peace,
and that we will find a way
to smash those images down.

I’ve always known there’ll come a day
patronage will cease
then we’ll get some peace,
and that we will find a way
to smash those images down
to the ground!
