Austerity Kills
00:42
|
|||
|
Rich against poor
to safeguard their position
working class lives fucked
in a war of attrition
Misery enacted
with pats on the back
Sanctions, homelessness
food banks, the bedroom tax
Austerity kills
nothing but class war
keeping people beaten down
driven to break the law
Austerity kills
targeting the poor
the subjugation of those in need
dressed up as war on greed

Running Out Of Room
00:25
|
|||
|
Staying positive is such a drain
crossed wires in my brain
Disdain washing over me
baptism of fire, complacency
Glimmers of joy
snuffed out so soon
world on my shoulders
and I'm running out of room

Race To The Bottom
01:40
|
|||
|
Deregulation, privatisation
neoliberalism is class war
complain about your working conditions
and your boss will show you the door
It's a race to the bottom
and you are dragging us down
lowering everyone's standards
taking workers rights backwards
together we could rise
and secure better pay
hourly rates look shitter
by the fucking day
Low paid workers
are unskilled or lazy?
They just value
their labour correctly
doctor and binman
are equal in their own right
in this race to the bottom
we must unite and fight
Thatcher's legacy still lives on
even if the witch is gone

Get Off My Back (ExTxAx)
00:47
|
|||
|
I don't wanna hang out with your stupid pack
why don't you get off my fucking back?
Get off my back
don't wanna be like you
Everywhere I go I see you
everyone I talk to seems to know you
Get out of my face
get out of my sight

Stagnation
00:37
|
|||
|
Something to strive for
something to motivate me
I can't rest on my laurels
if I want to be depression free
Stagnation
A rolling stone gathers no shite
keeping at bay mental blight
