lyrics

Do you want to drink a magic potion?
Would you like...?

"A land fit for heroes", that's what they said
Where veterans are homeless
And fucked in the head
They sanction your benefits
And leave you for dead
Lives are cheaper
Than bog roll or bread
Discarded syringes litter the park
And if you're one of the old
It's not safe after dark
Hoodies in trackies carry sharp knives
And steroid fuelled cokeheads
Batter their wives
Children drink beer
And stand in the rain
On a long road to misery
Where nothing is gained
The Masters have broken
The Workers back
Now they're on Jobseekers
Caning The Smack!

Who are you to give me commands?
And take away my liberty?
The bars of gold have fallowed the land
And decimates communities
Taking... taking back control!
Taking... taking back!

Where food-banks are full
Because you're earning fuck all
You bang your head on bureaucracy's wall
Persecute Travellers for living off-grid
Stick them in a box and screw down the lid
Where your leaders are gangsters
And paedophile scum
The Pigs turn a blind eye
And act fucking dumb
Integrity's bought for the price of fame
And terrified refugees take the blame
Council Tax collectors take your piss-pot
The colour of your skin can get you shot
The water's poisoned
Because they're fracking the land
And the Safety Inspector's
Got their head in the sand
The price of your silence was already sold
As you pile up the dog shit
They told you was gold
A land fit for heroes? They sold you a lie
To conscript your youth
And send them to die!

Rise from the dust!
Our freedom is a must!
Grab your fellow man!
Revolution is the plan
Give it everything we can
Let's overrule this new world plan!

Take away freedoms paid for in blood
Demonise poor folk, say they're no good
The boot's on your neck
And your face's in the mud
A land fit for heroes is drowning in blood!

Do you want to drink a magic potion?
Would you like...?
