‘The Eton Boys are undefiled
The Bullingdon Boys, running wild
And England slides into the mist
No hope they’ll cease nor desist’

Madness today unveil snap release ‘The Bullingdon Boys’. The seminal British pop band’s first new music since 2016, ‘The Bullingdon Boys’ is a self explanatory, barbed swipe at the charlatans, rotters and chancers at the top of the tree who have done their best to take the shine off 2019.
The lads were puzzling over the fact of how was it possible that in Great Britain with 24,000 Schools 19 of the 54 Prime Ministers all came from Eton... How Remarkable!
Apparently a famous statistician from Bern in Switzerland crunched the numbers.. He concluded that the chances of 19 Prime Ministers coming from one and the same class were very close to.... ZERO!
"More f*cking chance of being hit by lightning in a nuclear bunker" he said.
And yet here we are with 19 (of 54) Prime Ministers coming from Eton. Not even to mention other cabinet ministers. David Cameron for example had 13 classmates in his front bench team!
The Bern professor said he had difficulty collating this phenomena within the definition of 'fair play'.
...and so the boys felt a need to write a song about it.
Presented without further comment, Ladies and Gents, we give you ‘The Bullingdon Boys’.
Produced by Langer & Winstanley, Recorded at RAK Studios in Sept 2019
Its not a pretty sight
The lads are out tonight
They long to give there all
With backs against the wall
The games one upmanship
Be sure they’ll let it rip
We’ll have to have a go
In our comedy horror show
Its not a pantomime
In life one needs to climb
Things can only get much better
Bitter Better Butter Mutter
We are the bully boys
Move late at night don’t make much noise
Up the stairs from the den
Followed by our Batmen
We's are the chosen few
And we’s are coming thru
And we know’s just what to do
It's Robbin’ to the rescue
The Eton Boys are undefiled
The Bullingdon Boys, running wild
And England slides into the mist
No hope they’ll cease nor desist
We are the chancers brigade
and we’ll have you flogged and flayed
Sadly no room left at the top
Move along back to your sweatshops
Musical Titanic Tasset ……………………
Well we's are the chosen few
And we’s are coming thru
And we know’s just what to do
It's Robbin’ to the rescue
Well
We worked our fingers to the bone
It's not as if we was alone
There’s people needing to be paid
And there’s booty boys to be made
………. All Hands On Deck
The Eton Boys are undefiled
The Bullingdon Boys, running wild
And England slides into the mist
No hope they’ll cease nor desist
They're making England Great Again
But make way for the bagmen
When everything’s been sold and bought
We’ll soon be off the life support
