Socialist Cocaine

There ain’t no such thing
as socialist cocaine.

You may be one of those 
who buys sustainable clothes,
fair trade food, the Big Issue.
Once cried for Mogadishu, but 
at the weekend went ‘atishoo’.

There ain’t no such thing
as socialist cocaine.

You march against oppression, 
but love a Friday night session.
You talk of righting wrongs,
singing the Republic Songs, 
hate the dropping of the bombs.

Shall I tell you what's wrong
with socialist cocaine?

There's a long white line
to where the sun don’t shine.
Young girls dead inside a container,
en route from central Romania. 
Do I have to explain it to ya? 

That there ain’t no such thing 
as socialist cocaine.

You might like a little toot,
whilst a head’s crushed by a boot.
A tiny sniff to take away the fear.
We’ll keep the red flag flying here.
We’ll keep the red flag flying here. 

On socialist cocaine.
