Once on the streets deep night and rolling wheels
black dog white teeth through the midnight beats
shivering trailer raw light eye liner
aware not scared heading right to the tall monster
facing the temple fence
quick and careful glance
some outside to watch while we jump to snatch
the overproduction waste
what we call foodand they call scraps
Cuz this is the way for such bastards
this is the way for such bastards who are in love
with their sullen alienation
this is the way for such bastards
Digging through surprise boxes
as curious as London foxes
but black dog barking whistle screaming
blue lights no doubt those cowboys turned out to check us out
wearing the law as a stupid gray suit
which definitely will never suit anybody
Cuz this is the way for such bastards
this is the way for such bastards who are in love
with their sullen alienation
this is the way for such bastards
Because we're squatting society gaps
and fucking off the nasty traps
some cops of the borough feeling like great superheroes
are happy to run to try to arrest us
chasing us criminals who that night broke the law
with anger and with no guns
Cuz this is the way for such bastards
this is the way for such bastards who are in love
with their sullen alienation
this is the way for such bastards
