Song choice

'For He's a Jolly Good Felon' was the third release from the lostprophets album 'The Betrayed' released in January 2010, and released as a single on the 11th April 2010. Whilst the lyrics to the song reveal a completely different story to the rest of their songs, lead singer Ian Watkins admitted to 'The Sun' newspaper that the lyrics describe:

"The song is about us growing up on council estates in Wales. The lyrics are about that way of life, I am not condoning it. We were good boys, it was just that our environment exposed us to anti-social behaviour. In this new album I have been very honest lyrically without a filter or producer. I have already covered areas like the conditioning of society and my anger towards it, so I suppose I just didn't want to repeat myself."

Music Video:
