Lyrics:
Oh well, the church bells are calling, police car on fire
And as they call you to the eye of the storm
All the people say, "Stay at home tonight"
I say we are the pigs, we are the swine
We are the stars of the fire
Of the firing line
And as the smack cracks at your window
You wake up with a gun in your mouth
Oh, let the nuclear wind blow away my sins
And I'll stay at home in my house
I say we are the pigs, we are the swine
We are the stars of the fire
We are the pigs, we are the swine
We are the stars of the fire
Of the firing line
We are the pigs, we are the swine
We are the stars of the fire
But deceit can't save you, so
Oh, oh, oh, oh, we all watch them burn
Oh, oh, oh, oh, we all watch them burn

[@richardenglish2195]

Had this on regular rotation for thirty years and I've yet to grow tired of it!

[@PD-fh4wj]

I bought the vinyl last week. 1st Suede gig was this tour October 1994. What a show. Richard was a star.

[@soeasy9863]

Suede is different from everything. The Band that makes Art from your heart.

[@mamuniamamunia]

Beautiful

[@bettina4767]

What a fantastic band they were in those days and they are still going strong with brilliant new albums and incredible live shows. Suede forever ❤

[@mariliareis7075]

Concordo totalmente

[@thomasanderson2912]

This is a Superb life-affirming song. Best Single of all time?! This was such an important song for me. It was my introduction to DMS. This song is an act of Genius that encapsulates sheer menace and unearthed terror. Simply beautiful. p.s This song possibly saved me from terrible depression plus much worse. I will forever be grateful to Suede for everything they have done, for me to be here now and happy with life. I'm blessed :)

A shining light a band who have been consistently great from day one having watched many old reruns of top of the pops from the 90,s there was an awful lot of total dross these guys made it worth watching

[@ivanrojas4406]

Gran canción de la mejor banda Brit, saludos desde México

[@bettymarshall690]

suede is our infinite tribe

[@lindymerry38]

I've been a fan of Suede since their "Head Music" tour when they were in Australia & hosted the music video show "Rage". I had seen their "Animal Nitrate" video multiple times before but that was when I realised how many great songs they had. Those of you living in the UK are lucky. The pig reference reminds me of the books, "Animal Farm" & "Lord of the Flies". I wonder if Brett had these in mind. This performance made me notice how good Matt's bass playing is.

[@danielvitodasilva]

Tinha me esquecido que o top of the pops os artistas faziam playback

[@andrejsgulins3023]

It sounds if Brett's pulling it of over some backing vocal track (you can clearly hear that around 1:30 playtime) but it doesn't change the fact that it still sounds absolutely killer though. Cheers from Latvia!

[@lizahadiz8835]

I don't think that the bands that appear on Top of the Pops really play live.

[@Muzixixi]

那一句I say 我直接倒地

[@robertcreighton4635]

Why does nobody seem bothered that bits of the studio are on fire?

[@queenelmejor]

Is thst Bernard Butler?

[@lizahadiz8835]

No, it's Richard.

[@BillyHell01]

Live? expected less from TOTP fade out seems forced

[@mohdzulhilmimohdzin]

Early suede permomans not far from the original recording… ssss

[@birdyashiro1226]

前排。

[@TH-b1stard]

A shame Bernard was not part of it. His departure overshadowed promotion of the album.

[@SamM_Scot]

I think he only appeared in one promo video as far as I can remember, which was for the classic single 'Stay Together'. Could be wrong though :-)

[@TH-b1stard]

@@SamM_Scot Stay Together was recorded months before and is seen as a standalone single. Not part of the sessions for Dog Man Star.

[@picnicbythegraveyard]

🙏🏻 CAN WE STOP LICKING BERNARD'S ARSEHOLE AND ENJOYING THE MUSIC? like PLEASE

[@馬路社]

the audio is album version

[@mohdzulhilmimohdzin]

not far from the original recording😊

[@drparnassus2867]

You can hear Anderson's handclaps at 2:08 - I think he was mic'd up but no-one else was

[@馬路社]

@@drparnassus2867 1:30 Anderson's voice continue when his mouth leave from microphone. I heard suede thousand times when I was young, the details of this video remind me of my memory. maybe this is a mixing of album record plus some live sound, interesting.

[@ProudFilthyCasual]

Bernard looks sooooo different here.

[@Raelin617]

That's our 17 years old baby guitarist

[@rickhunters]

Is Richard, Not Bernard

[@alisonround2720]

It’s baby Richard.

[@donovanpain83]

And it's LIVE...not many bands did...

[@iagobroxado]

Its not.

[@donovanpain83]

​@@iagobroxadoCan tell by Brett's vocal.

[@iagobroxado]

@@donovanpain83 His main vocal may be live, but all the rest is a playback, including the backing vocals.

[@MarbleArch.]

​@@iagobroxadoSame thing I thought, it's the karaoke version of we are the pigs.

[@drparnassus2867]

@@MarbleArch. I would absolutely do We Are The Pigs on karaoke. Drive everyone to the bar.
