lyrics

March of the matriarch, young are in tow
Voice like a bailiff's knock
Watch all the Russian dolls, one at a time
Winding up in the dock

Heir apparent, you were dragged up
Running barefoot through the fag-butts
It's a shame – and not your fault – but
That's a dead-end not a shortcut

Chorus of calls at dawn, carried on wind
Chilling me to the bone
What would you want to be, should you grow up?
Best run away from home

Heir apparent, you were dragged up
Running barefoot through the fag-butts
It's a shame – and not your fault – but
That's a dead-end not a shortcut

Ubiquitous as bird-song
Oblivious and headstrong
In your saliv'ry tower
Homogeneous as high-streets
Insidious as tax-cheats
It worsens by the hour
