Muck On The Wall
Wall of Reflection: Unraveling Society's Stains in Wilko Wilkes' Muck On The Wall
Lyrics
Oh crummies look what some idiot has done to that wall
Expressing dismay at the state of the wall due to someone's actions
It's absolutely disgusting I bet it was kids honestly Howard kids round here have got no respect
Expressing disgust and attributing the act to disrespectful kids in the area
They want locking up
Suggesting that the perpetrators deserve imprisonment
I'm sick of it
Expressing frustration and being fed up with such behavior
National service is too good for them, they want castrating
Expressing extreme punishment for the offenders, suggesting they deserve castration
Lock them up and throw away the key that's what I say
Advocating for severe punishment, imprisonment, and abandonment of the offenders
I blame the parents
Blaming the parents for the kids' actions
Broken homes produce broken kids it's as simple as that but they should know better
Connecting troubled family situations to the behavior of the children, emphasizing the importance of proper upbringing
There's no excuse for behavior like that
Asserting that there's no valid excuse for such behavior
Seriously some of the families round here are literally feral
Labeling some families as wild or untamed due to their behavior
Sat at home jobless with their Sky TV and an endless supply of cigarettes
Describing unemployed families with luxuries but lacking responsibility
They're nothing but spongers the lot of them
Considering them as freeloaders without contributing to society
Maybe if they'd worked a day in their lives they might understand the value of hard work
Suggesting that working experience might lead to better understanding and values
And have some respect for the poor beggar who's got to clean that off
Highlighting the disrespect for those who have to clean up after such actions
Mind you it'll probably be one of their friends on community service
Speculating that someone from a similar background might be assigned to clean it up
Like Les Battersby that time before he went off with Status Quo
Referencing a specific person's past misdeeds
Honestly the mind boggles
Expressing bewilderment at people's actions and choices
I just don't know what goes through some people's heads
Expressing confusion and a lack of understanding regarding people's motivations
Do they wake up in the morning and think I know what I'll do today
Questioning the thought process of individuals who engage in such behavior
I'm going to go out and create an eyesore
Mocking the mindset of deliberately causing a visual nuisance
I'm going to trash someone's property
Expressing the intention to vandalize someone's property
I'm going to do the most obnoxious thing I can think of
Emphasizing the intention to perform an offensive act
And stain a perfectly clean wall with a load of muck
Describing the act of defiling a clean surface with dirt or graffiti
Because the only person I care about is myself
Highlighting selfishness and disregard for others
And the rest of you can all go to hell
Expressing disregard for others and a self-centered attitude
What
Questioning what has happened or what's being observed
It's a Banksy
Realization that the graffiti/artwork is created by Banksy
Oh my god Howard
Expressing surprise and awe at discovering the artist's identity
It's a Banksy
Reiterating the amazement at the art being Banksy's creation
What an honor
Expressing honor and excitement at the artwork's significance
Oh it's amazing
Expressing admiration and disbelief at the artwork
I can't believe it
Expressing disbelief and astonishment at the situation
I've been wanting him to come here for years
Recalling a desire for Banksy's presence in the area
In fact I think I even said it at that barbeque round Joan's last summer didn't I
Recalling a previous statement about Banksy's potential visit
Do you remember
Asking for confirmation of a shared memory
Oh I can't believe we missed him
Expressing regret at missing the opportunity to witness Banksy
Right come on let's go back and get a picture with it before some reprobate steals the wall
Expressing urgency to capture a photo with the artwork before it's vandalized or removed
Come on quick
Urging quick action to take a picture with the artwork
