I got a letter this morning with some serious news that's gone [bad word] my day,
The borough surveyor's [bad word] purchase to acquire my domain,
They're gonna pull up the floors, they're gonna knock down the walls,
They're gonna dig up the drains.
 [bad word] the people in grey, they're gonna take me away to Lord knows only where,
But I'm so unprepared, I got no time to pack and I got nothing to wear, [bad word] the people in grey,
To take me away.

Me and my baby gonna get on a train that's gonna take us away,
We're gonna live in a tent, we're gonna pay no more rent, we're gonna pay no more rates,
We're gonna live in a field, we're gonna buy me gun to keep the policemen away.

I'm gonna pass me a brand new resolution,
I'm gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway,
Gonna beat those people in grey,
But [bad word] the people in grey,
To take me away.
 [bad word] the people in grey,
To take me away.

People in grey have gone and taken away my right to voice [bad word] 
Her Majesty's Government have sent me a form, I [bad word] it today.
But it's making me blue, don't wanna tell all my secrets to
The people in grey.

Gonna pass me a brand new resolution,
Gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway,
Gonna start my rebellion today.
But [bad word] the people in grey,
To take me away.

Oh, Lord, those people in grey,
I gotta get back at those people in grey, [bad word] the people in grey,
To take me away.
