lyrics

Dilute.

Laying bodies on the news
They say they’ll know how many soon
Checkin' my six along the avenue
Dilute, dilute.

Ain’t you gonna dilute me now?
Ain’t you gonna dilute?

Panic in the U.K
Reminisce of Morrissey
He came out of the woodwork
A lone wolf on the scene
Treason of the Manc in May
Claims one for every day
Panic in the U.K
Working like it’s a machine

Scattered corpses on the news
They say they’ll know how many soon
Running down the London Bridge in June
Dilute, dilute.

Ain’t you gonna dilute me now?
Ain’t you gonna dilute?

Gimme, gimme chaos
They be runnin’ they be gunnin’
Panic in Iran, man, wouldn’t a week be something!
Without this

Innocent blood spilling in the news
Looking like the war machine refused
So they’re coming for me and they’re coming for you
Dilute, dilute.

Take a little time to check the clues
They’ve become the poet’s muse
Checkin' my six along the avenue
Dilute, dilute.
