Fooled Again! (feat. Matt Orion)
There's no statues of our heroes
All we asked for was decent pay
Not a class war that the rich keep fighting
While we're told that we're to blame
Politicians and union bosses
Took our money and turned away
While we suffer they got their peerage
Sold us down the river again
100 years on we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted
1 step forward 2 steps backward
Is nothing ever gonna change
Left and right wing, they divide us
Take our vote and then despise us
5 years later back to entice us
And we still get fooled again
And we still get fooled again
While we're hoping for a better future
We're yearning for our yesterdays
A council house, and a job for life
A trip to the coast for our holidays
Gave it away for a life on credit
A bigger cage and a longer chain
The promise of a lifestyle you can't afford
Sold us down the river again
100 years we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted
1 step forward 2 steps backward
Is nothing ever gonna change
Left and right wing, they divide us
Take our vote and then despise us
5 years later back to entice us
And we still get fooled again
And we still get fooled again
A one day strike nothing achieved
A pointless march from A to B
Sold your soul for sovereignty
Cover your eyes with your bloody flag
And get what you deserve
100 years on we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted
1 step forward 2 steps backward
Is nothing ever gonna change
Left and right wing, they divide us
Take our vote and then despise us
5 years later back to entice us
And we still get fooled again
100 years on we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted
1 step forward 2 steps backward
Is nothing ever gonna change
Left and right wing, they divide us
Take our vote and then despise us
5 years later back to entice us
And we still get fooled again
And we still get fooled again
All we asked for was decent pay
Not a class war that the rich keep fighting
While we're told that we're to blame
Politicians and union bosses
Took our money and turned away
While we suffer they got their peerage
Sold us down the river again
100 years on we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted
1 step forward 2 steps backward
Is nothing ever gonna change
Left and right wing, they divide us
Take our vote and then despise us
5 years later back to entice us
And we still get fooled again
And we still get fooled again
While we're hoping for a better future
We're yearning for our yesterdays
A council house, and a job for life
A trip to the coast for our holidays
Gave it away for a life on credit
A bigger cage and a longer chain
The promise of a lifestyle you can't afford
Sold us down the river again
100 years we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted
1 step forward 2 steps backward
Is nothing ever gonna change

And we still get fooled again
And we still get fooled again

And we still get fooled again
100 years on we're still fighting
For the same things that we always wanted

Is nothing ever gonna change
Left and right wing, they divide us
Take our vote and then despise us
5 years later back to entice us
And we still get fooled again
And we still get fooled again
