Looking for a song from the early-mid 1990s, British indie stuff, the picture sleeve had John Major holding a sub-machine gun or similar. The song opened with an echoed sample of Hughie Green's 'for God's sake, Britain - wake up' from Stand Up And Be Counted. Lyrics include (I think) 'this global situation's just a sick reflection/of your cynical hypocrisy:/because it's one law for you, one law for me/and I'm swimming in the god damned sea'. I think that the song is called What's Going On, but searching for that just brings up the Marvin Gaye number, which this definitely isn't. Has anyone got any ideas? Thanks!

And I wake in the morning and I step outside, and I take a deep breath, and I get real high? 4 non blondes
It’s called ‘What’s up’
