IDLES - I'm Scum Lyrics
I'm council housed and violent
I'm laughing at the tyrants
I'm sleeping under sirens
Whilst wondering where the time went
I'm scum
I'll sing at fascists 'til my head comes off
I am Dennis Skinner's molotov
I'm lefty, I'm soft
I'm minimum wage job
I am a mongrel dog
I'm just another cog
I'm scum
I'm scum
This snowflake's an avalanche
Dirty rotten filthy scum
For a long long while I'm known as
Dirty rotten filthy scum
For a long old while I'm known as scum
I'm scum
Spit in your percolator
I am procrastinator
I over-tip the waiter
'Cause I'm scum
I'm scum
I don't care about the next James Bond
He kills for country, queen and god
We don't need another murderous toff
I'm just wondering where the high street's gone
'Cause I'm scum
I'm scum
This snowflake's an avalanche
Dirty rotten filthy scum
Dirty rotten filthy scum
For a long old while I've known I'm scum
For a long old while I've known I'm scum
For a long old while I've known I'm scum
For a long old while I've known I'm scum

IDLES I'm Scum Comments
PEAKY FOOKIN BLINDERS
Thanks to Peaky Blinders I heard this song and got into IDLEs.
So fucking good, both their albums are just covet to cover gold.
don't they sing "For a long old while i've known i'm scum" and not "time" as the lyrics says?
maybe even 'long long while'
I'm Scum.
Check out the song No Mercy by the Stranglers it has kind of the same guitar riff. Both songs are amazing btw.
When I first heard this I thought it was a late 70s/early 80s Oi band, so good
I'm reminded of this by the new ContraPoints video.
Jim Smallman.
First song worthy of being called Punk rock in a long time. 100% proud Scum.
Peaky Blinders has the best music...especially for filfee scum such as myself...shout out from Baltimore Maryland -aka- Bodymore Murdaland 🤘🏻🖤🖕
Thanks for sharing folks
Well done.
I’m an American, But I’m Sssccuummm!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Here because of Peaky Blinders
This songs great, it puts the anger we all feel towards the right and channels it into fun and entertainment instead of violence.
The idols are what we need culturally and socially, great message great music.
Plus Joe Talbot is just cool as fuck
I think the word is cuck not scum 🤔

"this snowflake's an avalanche!" bloody love idles! <3
Love this band but much prefer their live recordings this sounds too polished! Still great just can hear the production :P
Great song I love the chorus
Peaky Blinders?
Thank you Peaky Blinders, its my new favourite song
who is danny nedelko?
Aren't Idles all privileged ex uni students? the type that go to uni for an easy life and the crack rather than education??? They're definitely not from the inner cities anyway, nice and easy to be punk and political when your privileged but wish you weren't. Tossers.
Archie Archdale sorry mate but your comment doesn’t really make sense. So by your argument, to be punk and political, you’re only allowed to be unprivileged? Why does going to university prevent you from caring about the world?
@Matt D Eh? Your comment doesn't make sense at all, when did I say privileged people or people who went to uni don't care about the world? I didn't obviously cos that would be dumb. Anyway I'm not here to chat nonsense r kid. I'm from a place called Hyde Park in Leeds and I guess that's shaped the way I view most privellaged/uni student types who live amongst serious depraviation and poverty and seem to think it's cool and all just a bit of a joke. I've met loads of sound, intelligent ''posh'' people and loads of scumbag working class and vice versa.
Hahaha all the snowflakes are gonna cling on to this song and never let go...... fucking gays.
Way to own the word.
The moment Barney Sthompson shoots at the point... this music starts

Vewy neato
All I can say is Wow
I love you IDLES
ok libtards, if climate change exists, then why does it burn when i pee?
To all snowflakes feeling proud, even malcolm x hated your ideology. Look it up
hey, this is your 4th comment in a row about the same thing and you are named after fictional character in a movie about toxic masculinity , shut the fuck up
reductorsonico eat shit
The Rainmaker I am, sjw’s arent
Malcolm X hated liberals. I'm not a fucking Liberal. You are still a moron who thinks "left = Liberal" which... No. Idiot chud.
I hate snowflakes, but I love this song
Lmao imagine thinking sjws were real.
“I dont care about the next james bond, he kills for country, queen and god! We dont need another murderous toff!” Hahaha brilliant 😂
For the record, SJW’s are scum
Spit in your percolator
I am THE masterbator!
Pizdato pacany!
FUCK YEAH!!!
God, every single video the comment section is about them being a Punk band. They have said multiple times that they are not. If you like the band, maybe go with that.
But they also said that they sound like a punk band in their 6music interview and that "I'd say most of our fans are punks based on who goes to shows"
So you know. I know they claim there's more of a hip hop influence in there and see themselves closer to someone like Death Grips, fact is they do have a modern "Oi" type sound regardless of how they got there.
Yes. That isn't dead yet!!!!!!!
our own ian dury
Any band that drops Dennis Skinner's name in a song can do no wrong.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
