If 9/11 paid for the last financial meltdown how’re they going to pay for this one? Spare me a dime Bare faced no nonsense thievery Going on under you nose A trillion dollars just to bail out the rich It’s gonna dig you deeper into your hole
The pretence of concern on their faces Turns to smiles behind the closed door They’ve just taken away your future And you won’t see that anymore
You just paid to decimate the poor You just sanctioned their next phase of war It was the only excuse they needed Your last piece of self respect conceded
Hey there buddy can you spare me a dime Can you offer some compassion to me? This dust bowl is choking my thought I used to think this was the land of the free How the hell did it come to this? We’re just slaves to money power and greed How did corporate killers and thieves Become the single self dominant creed
You just paid to decimate the poor You just sanctioned their next phase of war It was the only excuse they needed Your last chance to get off your knees conceded
So keep your love ones close And you debts to a minimum And God help the old folk Cos they’re rewriting the rule book Making new contingencies Of acceptable losses From future power obscenities
Exemption From The Stress Of Authority In A Beggarly Half Dozen Of Restraint's Infinite Multitude Of Methods. A Political Condition That Every Nation Supposes Itself To Enjoy In Virtual Monopoly.
Liberty.
The Distinction Between Freedom And Liberty Is Not Accurately Known; Naturalists Have Never Been Able To Find A Living Specimen Of Either.
Burning bright We’re expected to embrace The Beijing flame Human rights Are denied So they can play their stupid games
But we couldn’t go to Moscow Because the Commies were bad guys But now they want to buy Nike And they can sell us cheap textiles And depress all dissent And that is the democracy we like
Sweat Shop labour To make the toys Stamped with Olympic pride Crimes of poverty In a rich nation Hidden from our eyes
But we don’t delve too deeply Because we need the market Don’t want to lose our profits Or even our position We’ve got to keep on creaming That is the democracy That is the democracy Keep our nation rich and free That is the democracy we like
