Idles – I’m Scum Lyrics

I’m Scum by Idles
Released : 2018

I’m council house and violent
I’m laughing at the tyrants
I’m sleeping under sirens
Whilst wondering where the time went
I’m scum
I’m scum
I sing at fascists ’til my head comes off
I am Dennis Skinner’s molotov
I’m lefty, I’m soft
I’m minimum wage job
I am a mongrel dog
I’m just another cunt
I’m scum
I’m scum

This snowflake’s an avalanche

Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long long while I’m known as
Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long old while I’m known as scum
I’m scum

Spit in your percolator
I am procrastinator
I over-tip the waiter
Sarcastic amputator
‘Cause I’m scum
I’m scum
I don’t care about the next James Bond
He kills for country, queen and god
We don’t need another murderous toff
I’m just wondering where the *** street’s gone
‘Cause I’m scum
I’m scum

This snowflake’s an avalanche

Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long long while I’m known as
Dirty martyred filthy scum
For a long old while I’m known as scum
For a long old while I’m known as scum
For a long old while I’m known as scum
For a long old while I’m known as scum
