Description: So here’s the story: about a month ago the Kaiser Quartett sent me a recording of their arrangement of “Running the World” & asked if I’d consider singing on it. So I did. The song will feature on one of their upcoming record releases but - given the current campaign - we thought you might like to get a sneak preview right now. Merry Xmas! Jarvis xx ********************************************** Jarvis - Running The World - Lyrics Well did you hear, there's a natural order Those most deserving will end up with the most That the cream cannot help but always rise up to the top Well I say, "Sh*t floats" If you thought things had changed Friend, you'd better think again Bluntly put, in the fewest of words: C*nts are still running the world Now the working classes are obsolete They are surplus to society's needs So let 'em all kill each other And get it made overseas. That's the word, don't you know From the guys that's running the show Let's be perfectly clear boys and girls, C*nts are still running the world Oh feed your children on crayfish and lobster tails, Find a school near the top of the league In theory I respect your right to exist I will kill you if you move in next to me Ah, it stinks, it s*cks, it's anthropologically unjust Oh, but the takings are up by a third, oh so C*nts are still running the world The free market is perfectly natural Do you think that I'm some kind of dummy? It's the ideal way to order the world "F*ck the morals, does it make any money?" And if you don't like it, then leave Or use your right to protest on the street. Yeah use your right, but don't imagine that it's heard C*nts are still running the world ********************************************** There's a fan campaign to get Jarvis' Running The World up the charts in time for Christmas...Are you listening? ➤ bit.ly/2PA2KoR ➤ Listen to Best of Rough Trade 2019 ➤ bit.ly/2PGkeib #jarvis4xmas #runningtheworld #jarviscocker
