Yeah, it is a very good lyric.
Clearly based on the White King Red Rubber documentary of Leopald's dealings in the congo! |

That's what I've always loved about the Manics. Always put interesting subjects into their songs.

I make you right gutless.
No doubt some people will criticise Nicky for writing about a TV documentary, yet gloss over the Small Black Flowers counter argument I freely admit that by listening to the Manics I have become more well read and aware of a lot more historical facts that are quite obscure! |

You're wrong. It's wanking red rubber. I could be wrong. For years I thought The Jam's Eton Rifles was eating trifles.
