| Gang of Four – At Home He's A Tourist Lyrics

Sorry noshow, the Gang of Four were socialists and not NF. And apart from the title of the song, there's nothing in it to support your theory.
I also don't understand where the prostitutes come into it. I saw the song as a socialist critique of an upwardly mobile couple who treat even their relationships (marriages and one-night stands) as financial transactions. THey feel like tourists at home because their education and aspirations for consuming culture (which in the 70s still mostly referred to "high" culture) distanced them from the common decent working people of England. |

Yeah, it's "police and UDA". Also, he says Dave on the official version but John on the demo version. There was both a Dave and a John in the group. Also on the demo version it sounds like that one line is "used against you...like Irish jokes on the BBC". |
