about

An anti-systemic song, calling for a revaluation of all capitalist values.

lyrics

The good man said he could make it better
But when you voted, he sent your kids to war
The rich man said he could make you richer

So you applauded now you’re oh so poor
The tax-man said the country needs your money
So you paid him and he gave it to his mates
The banks suddenly got very lucky
Schools shut, factories closed their gates

CHORUS
Stay alive, make some strife
The systems got it all worked out for them
Stay alive. Just get by
No-one's gonna help you
No-one's gonna help you
No-one's gonna help you…… any more

While we work to get our wages
The real money’s floating to the top
Same old system through the ages

And us? If we’ve got enough, we’ve got a lot
It’s time to rethink this corrupt system
Measure men not by the money we get
Bitter cruel economy, and we’re blistered
Don’t give up we can change it yet

CHORUS
Stay alive, make some strife
The systems got it all worked out for them
Stay alive. Just get by
No-one's gonna help you
No-one's gonna help you
No- one'’s gonna help you…… but yourself

No- one’s gonna make us
No-one’s gonna break us
No.one’s gonna change us…
We’ll change ourselves
