Liner Notes
Recorded live at Old School Rehearsal Room, New Bracknell. Vocals added after the fact at Cashpoint Towers.

The name of this band is Baghdad. The music self-identifies as Punk.
Just being mildly rude to 'plastic' world cup football fans, but also to the tribalism that permeates football fandom in general. Faith with a lower case 'f'?
Lyrics
There’s no point in being friends With all these little silly men On their way to watch the game
Think they’re pretty, think they’re smart Are they just having a laugh Why not give them half and half Scarf to play with
Here come the pretty ones The chase around the cities ones They're so dumb, they are no fun There's no damn point being friends with them. Huh!
Off to Kansas with cardboard Only asking can not hurt Hey there Nessi can I have your Shirt please Mate?
Plastic football fan, must ask Here for the experience? Have you ever even watched a game yet? Oh no!:
CHORUS

Wow, love the hard-hitting percussion and vocal. Punk and powerful! Plastic works as a literal and metaphorical element/descriptor here.

I like this as lot. In the days of AI, loops, autocorrect this is obviously human made! Lovely! Also nice to see someone pushing back against sports.
