We came across the North Sea with our carriers on our knees
Wound up in some holding camp somewhere outside Leeds.
Because we do not care to fight, my friends - we are the weeds.
Because we got no homes they call us smelly refugees.
Ah. We are weeds, vegetation, dense undergrowth.
Thru` cracks in the pavement: there weeds will grow - the places
you don`t go.
This cut-price dairy produce that turns our bones to dust.
You want some entertainment?
Go on, shove it up me - if you must.
Make believe you`re so turned on by planting trees & shrubs
But you come round to visit us when you fancy booze `n` drugs.
Ah. We are weeds, vegetation, etc.
If you think it`s a crime
We`d like to get you out of your mind.
It`s just a matter of time, yeah
We`d like to get you out of your mind.
Gonna cut you down in your prime, yeah
We`d like to get you out of your mind.
For a little time: for all time.
Weed.
