    Lyrics:
    Bloodsport for all, said Corporal Flash
    And shoved me in a room full of C.S. gas
    Stuck me in a wet-suit to dry off in the sun
    And fed me pet food, Kit-e-kat and Chum
    Stand up and beg, said Sergeant Kirby
    Lay down, play dead for Di and Fergie
    Roll up, roll up goes the reveille
    Abuse the bugle boy of company be
    Suffer in silence, said Brigadier General Holmes
    Or change your name to Smith or Jones
    Learn to live with all the death threat notes
    The big bananas and the racist jokes
    Stand up and beg, said Sergeant Kirby
    lay down, play dead for Di and Fergie
    Roll up, roll up goes the reveille
    Abuse the bugle boy of company be
    And the coldest stream guards
    Of them all
    Sang God Save The Queen
    And Bloodsport For All
    While were on the subject
    I've been called a spade
    Single filed in public
    With my privates on parade
    I hope my feet go flat
    Before I hang myself
    Because I can't take this crap
    I'm going A.W.O.L.
    And the coldest stream guards
    Of them all
    Sang God Save The Queen
    And Bloodsport For All

    This was filmed at the Cambridge Junction. I have the pleasure of saying that those are me and mates stage diving. Brings a tear to my eye, simpler times.

    I'm Australian and a friend gave me a copy of this album in1992. I was 38 years old. Loved the social message of the songs. Brilliant poetry.
    I'm 65 now and still think it's shit hot!!

      I would say they were right for the time - the 90's (like the 60's) were very liberal, which is why it was a great time to be alive.

      Sadly, whilst their lyrics are still relevant, if they were around today they wouldn't have been as well known as now the youth are anaesthetised by trite and meaningless garbage driven by the likes of Cowell who revel in saying that "you made that song your own" as opposed to the past where groups / acts wrote their own songs and they had something meaningful to say.

    God I miss Carter concerts! Fruitbat and Jimbob were totally laid back and unphased by the crowd getting up on the stage to dance & stage dive - and the crowd understood the deal - people gave them the space to play, and obviously in a pre-mobile era noone was up there taking selfies or photos - people were there in the moment. I think I went to about 10 Carter gigs as an 17-18 year old - very happy memories.

    I came about hearing Carter USM in a friend's car in 1990 in Huntsville, Alabama, US. That's spread.
    I was rapture for 45 minutes. High school - we drove to nowhere for hours and listened to music on the way.
    30-Something is in my top ten list of perfect records.

    One of my favourite bands of all time. Totally original, totally cool and always amazing live! Jimbob, I had such a crush on you when I was a kid! I was 10 in 1990 but my older sister who's 9 years older, loved them and got me into them. I thought they were coolest blokes I'd ever seen in my life and it turned me into an indie kid! I have USM to thank for turning me on to good music.
