How sad are we?
And how sad have we been?
We'll let you know
We'll let you know
Oh, but only if you're really interested
You wonder how
We've stayed alive 'til now
We'll let you know
We'll let you know
But only if you're really interested
We're all smiles
Then, honest, I swear, it's the turnstiles
That make us hostile
Oh-wah, oh-wah, oh-wah, oh-wah, oh-wah
We will descend
On anyone unable to defend
Themselves
Oh-wah, oh-wah, oh-wah, oh-wah, oh-wah
And the songs we sing
They're not supposed to mean a thing
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
We may seem cold
Or we may even be the most depressing people you've ever known
At heart, what's left, we sadly know
That we are the last truly British people you've ever known
We are the last truly British people you will ever know
You'll ever, never, want to know
