lyrics

Your mummy mollycoddles you, she spoils you something rotten

That’s ‘cause you were an accident, you wretched misbegotten little child

You’re a bastard but you’re clearly in denial

You’ve never worked for anything, you take it all for granted

Small wonder that the rest of us are feeling disenchanted, oh it’s true

Not that many people care that much for you

Seventeen, you think that you’re the shit – remove the article that’s definite

The rest of us aren’t perfect but we all acknowledge that

So maybe you should too you little brat

Your parents spend 12 grand a year to fund your education

You waste their cash on cigarettes then tell them that you hate them, that’s a fact

Superficial supercilious little prat

You bullied your poor girlfriend into sex without protection

You said it makes you horny but you couldn’t get a damn erection, what a shame

And you’ve only really got yourself to blame

Pretentious preening egomaniac, there’s one thing you deserve, it’s called a smack

I hope you realise what a brat you are some day

And I don’t have a thing nice left to say
