He used to be a peace protestor...just like his violent pals.
It might have made him appealing but he had no interest in gals.
He’d climb aboard a navy submarine but never when alone.
Between you and me I think he wanted a submarine of his own.

He’d say ‘look at me – I’m a social rebel.’ I’d say ‘so what?’
I think he wanted me to join his protest but I’d rather not.
He invited me to travel to his peace camp based at Faslane.
Why did I refuse? Because I have a fully functional brain.

He used to buy our CDs when he thought us rather cool
but now he hates us because I said he really ought to go back to school.
Every political game he plays he will invariably lose
and like his loony leftie pals...he hates all Jews.
