lyrics

Economies are not forces of nature
They’re man made and when they fuck up it’s ‘cos they’re meant to
Politics is just a game for the rich
But there’s no card that they can play that cant be burned.

It’s five to one and they know
And their guns cannot change it.

Everything our masters tell us us a lie to keep us needing them
‘cos the biggest fear of the powers that be is the billions of ordinary humanity.
‘cos without our labour and purse it all comes crashing.
Any kind of world is possible but our decent nature has allowed us
To be locked into a system owned by nothing more
Than a glorified network of gangs that see you & me
As just voters & workers, soldiers & consumers
But together like Ants, we’ll conquer the biggest of enemies
Its just a choice & we can make it tomorrow if we please
Turn off the media, educate yourself & know the truth
Know your enemy & know that the solution is you.
There are thousands of alternatives
To the destructive way we’re all forced to live today.

It’s five to one and they know it
And their Gods cannot change it.

Freedom of speech and no discrimination based on
Colour, sexuality, gender, race or physicality.
No hand of force to make you submit
A system that protects life not some spurious market
Where you can do what you please as long as you don’t obstruct another
And disputes are solved with words not blood and terror
You don’t have to be a dreamer or an idealist
Just know your power, know your enemy & tomorrow could be this.

Healthy bodies, healthy minds and schools that teach to think
A plenitude of food and clean water to drink
Less time working and more time to live
With the true social control of any representatives
Where everyone is safe with endless opportunities
In a thriving culture with no pollution, no fear or disease
You don’t have to be a commie or an idealist
Just know your power, know your enemy & tomorrow, tomorrow could be this.
