Satire

Willy Biggun

 

The boys and I have put together a fab four ape band inspired by the lyrics of frontman Chancellor Ossie 'NWA' Osbourne.

Ossie, myself, Boris the silverback and Tarzan 'apeman' Dave are the band and, yes, we are the Monkeys!

Ossie raps in his NWA stylee, I'm on four string acoustic bass and fosters, mad Boris is on rhythm and speed and really steals the live show. Tarzan at the back is on bongos, weed, ecstasy, smack, anything really, he's a bucket job.

Ossie writes all the songs and doesn't hold back - he's like 'yo bitch hey Jude' and 'batty rider Corben suck my dick' - it's such a bum rush.

We'd like to play at all the festivals next year, but no illegal raves or anything like that. Below the hype we're really clean living apes just trying to make our way in the Westminster jungle.

Our first album, released by Bonobo Records, is entitled 'Power to a few People' and can be downloaded from Looney Tunes.

 

Here's the tracklisting:

1. Power to a few People

2. Give war a chance

3. Instant Cutbacks (gonna get you)

4. Sexy Maggie

5. Why don't we take it from the poor?

6. We can't work it out

7. All you need is unlikability

8. Working class losers

9. Everybody's got something to tax 'cept for me and my monkey

10. Yer Blues

11. Tories are the nigger of the world

Enjoy, suckers!
