Read All About It

Read all about it, read all about it
This is the sound of freedom calling
Read all about it, read all about it
This is the sound of bullshit falling
Read all about it, read all about it
This is the call to challenge power
Read all about it, read all about it
Here's where we out their broken tower
In billionaire avenue the sun goes down
The infrastructures' crumbling and they're losing their crown
The chandeliers are creaking at the weight of their lies
Topiary hedge-funds, stripped of disguise
The workers would amass but they're staying at home
Whilst the government renditions like a Betjeman poem
Follow what we say but don't do as we do
Or we'll all be stuck in lock down if you're acting the fool
Read all about it, read all about it
This is the sound of freedom calling
Read all about it, read all about it
This is the sound of bullshit falling
Read all about it, read all about it
This is the call to challenge power
Read all about it, read all about it
Here's where we out their broken tower
They're thanking all the mothers for the home kiddy care
Whilst the mothers lose their jobs, now they're losing their hair
But the ministers are harvesting a pay rise again
'Cos they're doing such a good job, it's a ten out of ten
All the bigger boys and girls are losing their mind
As they're stuck in halls at uni with no future to find
There's no fucking help, of course, but still they'll pay
To Zoom behind a laptop at the cost of 9k
They're thanking all the mothers for the home kiddy care
The brother's now on dole and losing their hair
Still the ministers are harvesting a pay rise again,
'Cos they're doing such a good job, it's a ten out of ten
The workers don't amass, they're still staying at home,
Whilst the vaccination's offered like a dog with a bone
Picking over crumbs as the paper-work mounts,
They argue most deserving, who of us really counts?
Really counts, really counts, really counts
Do we really count? Really count
Do we? Who of us really counts?
