Sex Pistols, “God save the Queen”

 

God save the Queen / her fascist regime / It made you a moron / a potential H bomb! / God save the Queen / she ain’t no human being / There is no future / in England’s dreaming

Don’t be told what you want don’t be told what you need / There’s no future / no future / no future for you

God save the Queen / we mean it man / We love our Queen / God saves

God save the Queen / ’cos tourists are money / and our figurehead is not what she seems / Oh God save history / God save your mad parade / Oh Lord / God have mercy / all crimes are paid

When there’s no future how can there be sin / We’re the flowers in the dustbin / we’re the poison in your human machine / we’re the future / your future

God save the Queen / we mean it man / We love our Queen / God saves

God save the Queen / we mean it man / There is no future / in England’s dreaming

No future… for you / No future… for me / No future… for you…
