"Isle Of Dogs" lyrics

"Isle Of Dogs"

You can't go back to the Isle of Dogs
It's all been taken away
Kensington and Chelsea remain
But your house was flushed down the drain

Because you're poor
And nobody likes you
You're poor
You're just a pain in the neck
You're poor
At the first sign of a cough
The NHS will bump you off

You can't go back to the Isle of Dogs
It's all been taken away
And as a reminder
Your job is in China
And that's where it's gonna stay

Because you're poor
And nobody likes you
You're poor
You're just a pain in the neck
You're poor
At the first sign of a cough
The NHS will bump you off

Election time comes around again
And everybody chases your vote
You still believe they'll look out for you
When they only want to slit your throat

Because you're poor
You shouldn't have an opinion
You're poor
Go and stand over there
You're poor
You've got horrible hair
Oh yeah!

You can't go back to the Isle of Dogs
It's all been taken away
Kensington and Chelsea remain
But your house was flushed down the drain

Because you're poor
Go and fall down the stairs
You're poor
I wouldn't bother with prayer
You're poor
You've got horrible hair
Oh yeah!
