about

A song written expressly to be played on the BBC. Well, perhaps not. Provoked by a tweet from a young man in Essex, his photo showing full on tattoos, bald head and beer belly, who referred to our most aristocratic Member of Parliament affectionately and with complete approval as “the Mogster”. It begged the question: how does someone, who would consider that young man to be an appalling, badly spoken, ignorant oik, evoke such admiration from the object of his disdain?
All references to that politician are entirely accidental, of course.
Having written the song I reheard “Motherfuckers” by the brilliant Simon Love. There’s no doubt about it, I hadn’t done it deliberately but I’d ripped his song off. We settled the matter at dawn under Marquess of Queensberry rules, battering each other to a standstill and so agreeing to split the song credit.

lyrics

See him talking there hear him talking everywhere whoa oh oh
Motherfucker
Glasses on his nose looking down on all he knows whoa oh oh
What a fucker

Yeah Motherfucker
Yeah what a fucker

Tweets God Save the Queen, and makes it sound obscene whoa oh oh
Motherfucker
And nanny’s always keen to clean up where he’s been whoa oh oh
What a fucker

Yeah, Motherfucker
Yeah What a fucker

How can he keep them in his thrall
Can’t they see that he thinks they’re all
stupid proles who know fuck all
Common oiks to heed his beck and call
