Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Bad Squire (from Chumbawamba)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: There's blood on your new foreign shrubs
It will hinge on the tune used: if it's Raven's then that's where Chumbawumba got the words, whatever they did to them subsequently. As I recall, all Jon Raven did was cut the poem down; I don't think he made any significant changes to wording.
