New Art Riot - Manic Street Preachers

Vintage aromas and vintage ideals

Old men greying to a dying country’s needs

Waiting for a knighthood to while away the hours

Listen and learn now it’s time to kill your betters

Museums are dead take a new art stance

Paint mass suicide on the aspiration diktat

Hospital closure kills more than car bombs ever will

But it saves money because people are expendable

You cold shoulder insurgents yet love arms dealers

Everybody’s taking drugs as it makes governing easier

Museums are dead take a new art stance

Paint mass suicide on the aspiration diktat

Sell out the past and learn to obey

You spit out and douse a molotov cocktail

Revolution soon dies sold out for a pay rise

China, Russia, England, all washed up in power abuse

Terrorism is an excuse that the ruling class use

Wipe out aristocracy now kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

England makes judgements of old school propaganda

The only threat to heads is silenced by dumb pleasure

Museums are dead take a new art stance

Paint mass suicide on the aspiration diktat
