We Want Your Blood

What's worse, glutton or cruelty?
What if they were the same thing?
They are the same thing. So what's worse?
You want our money, we want your blood
Landlords on crosses, drown in the flood
Red rings of roses
They all fall down
Streets lined with black flags
Cash, take a bow
What's worse, glutton or cruelty?
What if they were the same thing?
They are the same thing. So what's worse?
They'll take the youth clubs, knock down the walls
Build 50 houses that no one can afford
They'll buy the forests
They'll strip them bare
'Luxury' is relative
There's nothing here
What's worse, glutton or cruelty?
What if they were the same thing?
They are the same thing. So what's worse?
We won't make this mistake again
Your god is well and truly dead
We won't do this again

Grave Digging

Work all your life for something
That you'll never be allowed to reach
When you find it amounts to nothing
A lesson learned, too late to teach
If you don't break the endless cycle
Then your children will be next
Because when the system's rigged against us
If you don't fight, it'll cost your neck
Not giving up or burned out
I still have hope
But I won't lie to myself
We can't stay, but we'll never get away
Stuck digging our own graves to live
And if work doesn't pay, then we'll find another way
Because we haven't got a fuck to give
The worst is over now
So back to work
Back the pub
Back to school
Back to church
I hope we realise we've been sold a fucking lie
About countless avoidable tragedies at the cost of countless lives
We can't stay, but we'll never get away
Stuck digging our own graves to live
And if work doesn't pay, then we'll find another way
Because we haven't got a fuck to give
I won't lie to myself
