Could it be Chumbawumba?

That's How Grateful We Are

OK, this one's called "Whitewash"
When was the very first time you saw Chumbawamba?
In my dreams!
Ha!
Working in a forge, black lungs, burnt skin
Callouses, arched back, hammering, hammering
Stalin watching over us pigeon **** ****
We'd spit on the floor at this red b*****d god
That's how grateful we are
(Repeat)
Bronze statue, pink marble, built to last
We brought him to his knees in a single night
And the boots that remained I attacked, I attacked
Hammering, hammering, the past is past
That's how grateful we are
(Repeat)
Scrub away, scrub away
And the noise rang out, metal on metal
Pigeons flit, dust settled
Out from the shadows we took to the streets
David chopping at the giant's feet
That's how grateful we are
(Repeat)
OK, we're gonna take it right, right, right, right down, way down
What we need is a break from the old routine
(Repeat)
Can I kick it? Yes you can!
(Repeat)
There ain't no justice, just us
(Repeat)
OK, we've been doing this one quite a few nights running, but I'd like to take that one. Is that a yes? Which one, then?
etc. (too long for AB)
