lyrics

Move to the panic
The latest manic titanic
And now the kings are going deep
To take a pass
Better be frightened
And may your budget be tightened
Because the sky is falling
On the working class
Buy and sell
And go to hell
And suck the milkshake from the well
Your life is a sin tax
Oh yes we can
I know we can
I think we can
I hope we can
Let’s send this message up to the heavens
Change how we look at nothing
What’s this handsome trick you have for me?
Hope for the global oligarchy
Change how we look at nothing
Mind the gap
Borrowed map
Tourist trap
Buy more crap
Bursting flames
Crying games
Making names
Eeeny meeny miny moe
Catch a patsy by the toe
Make seven up yours people of London
Old Barry O.
You oughtta know
You ain’t so bad as puppets go
But you had a rather hard act to follow
Our knight of shiny nothing
Here we have a brand new Trojan horse
One that all the good folks will endorse
Our knight of shiny nothing
And I buy nothing more than anyone…
