You can stand up for a country
That will not stand up for you,
You can hope they’ll pay you a fair wage
In a hope you’ll make it through,
And when you realise they won’t
Because they’re syphoning off the profits,
And you realise there’s nothing you can do
And that you’re powerless to stop it,
That is when finally, the penny actually drops
That the rich get richer and the poor just die,
Yet they still expect us to fight their wars,
It’s by design there is a reason why there’s a few rich but millions who are poor.
