Scrapheap City
Sung by: belle and the floosies
(as flashs empire is being dismantled piece by piece)
There aint no beauty
And there aint no style,
Theres no quality
And theres no purity.
Honours dead and buried
Because its unnecessary.
Look at all the people,
Why they all look the same.
Theyre walking to the factory
In their cloth caps and trilbies.
Theyve got no style,
Aint it a pity.
Theyre tearing old quality down
Without any pity,
Now theyre coming to take me away
To scrapheap city.
They say that good manners belong on a heap,
They say theyre outdated and theyre obsolete,
And now theyre coming to take me away
To scrapheap city.
Theres no quality
And there aint no style
Just miles and miles
Of scrapheap piles.
Theres no quality
And theres no purity.
Theyre digging up all of the flowers
Because they look pretty
And erecting identical concrete monstrosities.
Theyre killing off all of the animals too,
The only ones left are the ones in the zoo.
Now theyre coming to take me away
To scrapheap city.
Aint it a pity,
Scrapheap city.
