Just me complaining about the cost of living, whilst also recognising inverse snobbery.
This would have sounded different. but my brain did not permit transposing correctly from the ukulele on which I wrote it to a guitar in the moment. Ah, well!
Lyrics
Looking for a good place to eat Not for gold leaf slavered on my meat Or a caesar salad for 200 quid Costing my whole mortgage just for some squid
Take your fancy restaurant and shove it up your arse Take your fancy restaurant and shove it up your arse Its way too big, Dont think it’ll fit? One cheek at a time and you'll be fine
While Looking for a place to eat Must provide my family with heat And also a roof over our heads Not paying fifty quid for stale bread
CHORUS
Also I do not like dressing up for Eating out and we will not be judged As at a funeral or a job interview - If I turn up in my pants, just let me through

Yes. Punk is for punching up.
Hear hear! Bloody inequality. I wonder if it'll ever get sorted...? 🤔
