Born Rich

The snakes are gonna swallow you whole
The ouroboros has impoverished the people you know
Lining their pockets with the coffers they stole
Pennies and coppers coming knocking just to rob you of dole

You think the borders are about to explode
You've more in common with the foreigners you've turned into foes
Then all the privateers in powerful roles
The pension pirates who annihilate your sense of control

Good luck retiring before you're dead
Pay off the mortgage o' your landlord while you live in a shed
The feudal baron's gonna come for your head
You miss the rent again and next you'll find a street for a bed

And while the billionaires all blast into space
A million more have just been born in total famine and waste
They'd rather die than give you anything back
And if you're destitute the rest of you can pick up the slack

So blame the boogeyman in Brussels
For Conservative hustles
It's always someone else's fault
All your austerity troubles
And I have ruffled some feathers in my time, I'll admit
That I'm a hypocrite, I'm full of sh, but I'm tired of hearing it

Cos the streets are full of kids
And the kids are all exhausted
Cos they can't get a house
Cos they can't get a mortgage
Cos they can't get a job
Cos the north was aborted

Being homeless is a crime
And crime's for the poor
We're all just gutter rats
Tryna find a way out the sewer
Poverty is a choice
And if you wanna be rich
Then you just gotta work really really hard for it
Then you just gotta work really really hard for it or

Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born
Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born

Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born
Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born

Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born
Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born

Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born
Just be born rich just be born rich
Just be born
