Who Did You Elect?
I pass the time
Singing songs out of key
As the time passes me by
I wonder what happened to me
Did i fall for the lies they told?
Did i believe in the dream they sold to me?
Now nothing seems to make much sense
I was told i could have it all
Was i wrong to try so hard
To break the walls between social classes
Brick by brick I think it can be done
Piece by piece we'll spark a revolution
Always thought there was so much more
There's always something worth fighting for
When a government chooses to ignore the poor
Any surprise there's still a class war?
21st century still casualties
No money, there's just overdraft fees
Modern capitalism, our economy
Only profiting the rich, no equality
Always thought there'd be so much more
Is there still something worth fighting for
With government corruption at our core
Will we ever be able to even the score?
We all believed in a fantasy
Just victims of complacency
What happened to our decency?
Have we lost all our humanity?
Why do we trust our governments
When upper class is all thats relevant to them
Government for the rich and greedy
They don't care for the poor and needy
Seems the politicians just don't understand
They've got the power but they just don't take a stand
And while you're stuck on benefits
They line their pockets with a ton of profit
Always thought there was so much more
There's always something worth fighting for
When a government chooses to ignore the poor
Is it any surprise there's still a class war
21st century still casualties
No money, there's just overdraft fees
Modern capitalism, our economy
Only profiting the rich, no equality
But why
Should we do just as we're told
To get by
They say
That You've got to sell your soul
But why
Should I
Fit into their mould
Tell them
They lied
And We're taking back control
Always thought there was so much more
There's always something worth fighting for
When a government chooses to ignore the poor
Is it any surprise there's still a class war
21st century still casualties
No money, there's just overdraft fees
Modern capitalism, our economy
Only profiting the rich, no equality
Always thought there'd be so much more
Is there still something worth fighting for
When it's all fake news and voter fraud
And the population still applauds
We all believed in a fantasy
We lost our way, such a tragedy
Where's our sense of community?
What's with all this lunacy?
Singing songs out of key
As the time passes me by
I wonder what happened to me
Did i fall for the lies they told?
Did i believe in the dream they sold to me?
Now nothing seems to make much sense
I was told i could have it all
Was i wrong to try so hard
To break the walls between social classes
Brick by brick I think it can be done
Piece by piece we'll spark a revolution
Always thought there was so much more
There's always something worth fighting for
When a government chooses to ignore the poor
Any surprise there's still a class war?
