Behind the veil and smoke and mirrors
Of governmental corrupt figures,
Those suited men and women who deal in suffering
You’ll find heartless soulless corridors of power,
That echo the cries of the homeless and poor
Who are sneered at by society because they dare ask for more,
These callous brutal politicians
Hate us, the public without volition
We are here to be used and exploited
Not to question or to hold them to account,
These heartless fuckers would see us all down and out,
And conspire of ways to take as much as they can
From us through taxes while freezing our pay,
While they cheer in the commons ‘hooray, hooray,’
As they applaud the blocking of a rise in nurses wage
During a pandemic where many of them put their lives at stake,
Yet the men and women in power helped
Their disaster fund capitalist chums to profit each day,
This is capitalism’s way, more for the wealthy less for the poor,
And to ensure this doesn’t stop they reduce our privacy
Then increase the draconian laws,
And barricade up the doors of opportunity some more
These fucking self serving, greedy, power monger whores,
Who’ll sell us down the river for a little bit more,
And when the time comes they’ll send out our young men
To fight another futile, pointless war without a cause,
As a way to use patriotism to add to their call
Of less liberty and great restrictions,
To say we live in s free world is a contradiction,
For we pay everyday for the privilege of living
Well I for one will not forget and will not be forgiving.
