Freedom for the educated and the rich Down and out in the city, life's a bitch Every day I go to work It's the same old stale routine Whichever way I look Some sad fuck is scraping off the cream. Media propaganda, dumbed down, made to fit They kicked them in the head, in the balls But they never noticed it Corporations, gotta keep them wages down I'm expendable, now cheap labour's come to town. CHORUS ---------- God I'm gettin' old There's someone taking my place God I'm getting' old Losing ground in this rat race I tried to make a change but Democracy is out of date I thought there was a difference but It's a single-party state And politicians ain't worth spit Spoutin' all of their bullshit. ---------- Government, corrupt and beating on the working man They sold a nation - and the nation didn't give a damn I gotta say, I'm looking forward to the day When a rain will come and wash the scum away. Mass surveillance is totalitarian creep Don't matter if you got nothing to hide You're gonna have to speak Freedom of speech is slipping away You can scream out but you'll never get your say. CHORUS Wake up, wake up There's no protection Wake up, wake up To disaffection Wake up, wake up There's no protection Wake up, wake up To disaffection. Wake up! CHORUS
