Jesus, when will this horribly boring, completely unfunny song go away?


When it ceases being accurate?


Accurate about what, the reality or people's prejudices?


Well, I get assaulted by the smells of Burger King and **** and sweat just
about every day on my tube travels, often together. "Every subway has a
****ing tramp" would have been a better line than "platform", I admit.

And if the travelling public are prejudiced against the tube drivers for
their frequent strikes and threatened strikes, that's the drivers' fault,
not the public's.
