lyrics

All these people talking

Say they’re talking for the people

But the people only really want one thing

And that is for tomorrow

Just to be like today

Yeah I’m quoting Sam vines NACAB

But there’s safety there in fiction

And I wouldn’t trust the real ones

And I’m learning to distrust reality

Cuz privilege means private law

And right that is another one

this is our boots theory of inequality

So No more

Populism

And no more

The people’s voice

There are no good isms and you’re only making schisms

Literally none of this was our Choice

There’s no morality

We’re all rats stuck on a sinking ship

Steering us, insanity

We’re all rats stuck on a sinking ship

So we’re the chaff and we’re the needful

And at least they’re not deceitful

When they’re smiling, telling you that you are screwed

Cuz you’re too poor to be a Tory

And that applies to almost all’ya

And their biggest lie is saying that is untrue

So our futures are downgraded

But we’re so tired and so jaded

That we meet it with a sad resigned silence

When the sensible response would be

To promote them all to glory

Like they won’t promote us, beyond our competence
