Well, everyone knows you shouldn't celebrate the death of someone (rather than their life, that's different) but lets face it a sizeable proportion of the UK population will sympathise with the opening lines of this song.
I guess the song is based on their childhoods- growing up in Thatchers Britain. It seems to suggest a growing awareness of the inequalities and values promoted by the Government then, and blaming education for not teaching them the ethics they value, but having to find them themselves. Then absolving blame to the subcultures young people indulged in.
I guess the last verse is about a working class conservative girl he falls for, who he never won over.
Or else the whole of the middle of the song is filler lyric to plump it out for the first lines and hilarious ending "ding dong the witch is dead" sung by school children.
I don't know about you, but when she does finally kick the bucket, I will be wishing I am in Barnsley, and getting in the Champagne, and dancing.
