Lyrics

We will laugh the day that Thatcher dies
Even though we know it's not right
We will dance and sing all night

I was blind in 1979
by '82 I had clues
By 1986 I was mad as hell

The teachers at school
They took us for fools
'Cause they never taught us what we should do
But Christ, we were strong
We knew all along
We taught ourselves the right from wrong

Because those punk rock kids with punk rock kicks
Well it's not their fault
And those hip-hop boys and heavy metal girls
No, it's not their fault

It was love, but Tories don't know what that means
She was Michelle Cox from the lower stream
She wore high-heeled shoes while the rest wore flat soles

And the playground taught her how to be cruel
I talked politics and she called me a fool
She wrapped an ankle chain 'round my left-wing heart

The teachers at school
They took us for fools
'Cause they never taught us what we should do
But Christ, we were strong
We knew all along
We taught ourselves the right from wrong

Because those punk rock kids with punk rock kicks
Well it's not their fault
And those hip-hop boys and heavy metal girls
No, it's not their fault

We will laugh the day that Thatcher dies
Even though we know it's not right
We will dance and sing all night

Ding dong, the witch is dead
Which old witch? The wicked witch
Ding dong, the witch is dead
The wicked witch is dead
