| Artists forced to be politicians Election speeches from musicians
How can this dross by anything like
democracy
Nowadays you can't get educated for
free
and that's an improvement they're telling me
You pay for healing when work makes
you sick
Then you pay for a health service
which doesn't exist
Pay tax for essentials to feather
their nests
There's no food for the starving
but there's champage for their guests
Grovel and be grateful for working
in shit
Then cut all our wages - now that's
a good trick
Close the hospitals,
close the schools
Shut down the pits,
they must think that we're fools
It seems to our shame, they could
be right
We've got to wake up cos it's time
for a fight
Underpay the nurses, sack all the
teachers
50% pay rise for arseholes and
leeches
Maggie made a fortune when sitting
in the house
Labour do bugger all just sit
around and grouse
Actively support the massacre of
millions
then condemn as terrorists those
who fight for their lands
They want us to think that the
country's at peace
But they've pushed the war onto the
streets
They let in crack, they let in
smack
they let in guns to defend the stack
No dancing, no ganja, no acid, no
Ecstasy
'cos taking those we're happy and violence free
They actively encourage race
hatred, murder and rape
This ain't no green and pleasant
land
It's a budding fascist state
