[Intro] [Verse] We don't speak the queen's English It's just an accent you won't be familiar with We use words that you've never heard New slang We lit the fuse, we're waiting for the bang [Chrous] We don't speak the queen's English Around here We don't speak the queen's English Oh no [Verse] Her tongue is a poison chalice We're just peasants born to pay for the palace Told to live within our means Swap our dreams for repayment schemes And I can't believe it's this way I've got bills no honest man could pay Dead eyed and nihilistic Well we're f**ed let's be realistic [Chrous] We don't speak the queen's English Around here We don't speak the queen's English Oh no [Interlude] Dirty hands, dirty plan Do you know what you've done Dirty hands, dirty plan Well I know what you've done Beggars ask for change and white collars throw them some You f**ed up the country and you went on the run We're up sh** creek without a paddle In a post-truth world and there's no one in the saddle [Chrous] We don't speak the queen's English Around here We don't speak the queen's English Oh no
