Do you have a link to an MP3 for this song?
Half a million idle
Both houses now and men
Raised for emigration
Stagnation once again
No such thing they tell us
As society no more
Outside of their enclosure
Where the winners fix the score
And greed is good they gospel
Its surely good for some
In that tightening golden circle
Where all outside are bums
Players now they call them
Gambling with your lives
Your health your homes your children
Just chips for them to hive
Pay peanuts and get monkeys
They pontificate from high
Atop their piling pensions
Scraping at the sky
Since they ladled on the largesse
Doctoring the books
But baboons could not have left us
Half so phukkinphukt.
I only sang this once in public and haven't got it recorded yet.
