"White Privilege" lyrics - IDLES
How many optimists does it take to change a lightbulb?
None!
Their butler changes the lightbulb
[Refrain:]
Always poor
Never bored
The S.L.C. want Timmy's student loan back
He'd happily oblige but he's used it all on gak
[Refrain:]
Always poor
Never bored
One miscarriage
Two abortions
One degree
Seven jobs
Sally danced her socks off as Jesus sobbed
[Refrain:]
Always poor
Never bored
I could've danced with another
'Cause she passed out on your stairs
[Refrain:]
Always poor
Never bored
[Chorus:]
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing
Compensate with humour
Or if really bored then sing
[Refrain:]
Always poor
Never bored
[Chorus:]
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing batter, batter, batter
Swing
Compensate with humour
Or if really bored then sing
[Refrain:]
Always poor
Never bored
[Outro:]
