lyrics

Look at that man
He’s sad
Watch you don’t end up like that
Said a career adviser
Mr Elder and Wiser
Buys a right to a life
You can’t afford on a living wage
Who puts the rage front-page
Who says
It’s just a phase
It’s just your age
This is life
It’s not age

Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection

There’s your hook
Take a second look
All that’s good
Is good for money
Got milk
Make cream
I rub my penis on the face of our queen
That’s a wet dream
My theme inequality
Qualified as competition
Degradation obscene
When you’re on your knees
You tell me what you see

Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection

You’re lucky
You live in the land of the Lord
And the Lords of the land land land to the Lords
With the landlord laws
Lauding their land like the Lord
Jesus Christ
I need a foot rub
I need a rise
1%
That’s all I’m asking for
Denied
All rise for the national anthem

Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection

Look at me
A litany of bad decisions
To quote my mum and dad
I don’t listen
I lack ambition
I told mum and dad
I’m a symptom of capitalism
One system doesn’t ask to be forgiven
Doesn’t ask what it takes
It makes you glad to hear me say
The market responded well to reports today of

Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection

Don’t look at me
Do not enter
Depressed diseased job centre
Centre of vice
Children with lice
Men with dogs the size of cars
Security guards
Panic alarms
Phantom limbs
Limps
Trackmarks
A hacking cough
Back payments
Pick the scab off
I’m afraid to sign on
Please spare me from

Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection

Keep looking for copper, robber
When all copper has been removed
You got recruiters in schools
Tutor market rules
We be fools for the rule of law
Contract
Clause
I get so bored of the nuts and bolts of my life so-called
So I call to devour the power that towers the debt
On a zero-hour
What do you expect

Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection
Poverty failure rejection

Make some noise
If your inbox is full of E-rejection letters
If entering your pin fills you with dread
If you don’t want to know what your monthly statement said
Then make some noise
For the cuts
Caps
Bedroom tax
Benefit cards that benefit our plutocracy of HRH VIP-lane dignitaries
Pulling down estates
Putting luxury homes in their place
Driving a crystal-encrusted Mercedes across my face
If you’ve had enough
Then make some noise

Something must be done
