IDLES – White Privilege lyrics
[Verse 1]
How many optimists does it take to change a lightbulb?
None!
Their butler changes the lightbulb
[Refrain]
Always poor
Never bored
[Verse 2]
The S.O.C. want Timmy’s student loan back
He’d happily oblige but he’s used it all on gack
[Refrain]
Always poor
Never bored
[Verse 3]
One miscarriage
Two abortions
One degree
Seven jobs
Sally sucks the socks off Jesus sobbed
[Refrain]
Always poor
Never bored
[Verse 4]
I could have danced with another
Cause she passed out on your stairs
[Refrain]
Always poor
Never bored
[Chorus]
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing
Compensate with humour
Or if really bored then sing
[Refrain]
Always poor
Never bored
[Chorus]
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing
Compensate with humour
Or if really bored then sing
[Refrain]
Always poor
Never bored
[Outro]
