White Suburban Punk

Society made me what I am
A white suburban punk
I used to be an idealist
But now I’m mostly drunk
White suburban punk
White suburban drunk
Self-fulfilling prophecy
I was born to lose
Don’t need life experience
Just records, booze, tattoos

Fortress Europa

Greece the fucking wheels
There’s España in the works
They’re writing rubber Czechs
For fences for the Turks
There’s refugees on fucking Poles
As Berlin flexes muscle
Neoliberal double Dutch
All the way from Brussels
Fortress Europa
London wants the boats
To sink Where’er they roam
‘Tween hell and high water
And the treaty of fucking Rome
Bureaucrats hide the stench
Of terror targets missed
Apologise to the French
But deposit to the Swiss
Fortress Europa

No More Room In Hell

Some kind of instinct
Memory of what they did
This was important
A place in their lives
We've gotta stay
Outta the big cities
The brains are dead
The idiots are still alive
When there’s no more room in hell
The dead will walk the earth
Half-a-dozen guys
Got bitten by those things
None of them lasted
More than three days
Nuclear resources
Drop bombs on the cities
Help us deal with
These illogical ways

Swear the oath, to limitless growth
Glaring emission, corrupt politician
Critical mass, colony collapse
Mass migration, exploitation
Authors of our own demise
Our demise, our demise
Universe twenty five
Missing link, behavioural sink
Smash the hive, we won’t survive
Malthusian dread, bring out your dead
Flaw in utopia, species myopia

Democracide
01:26
|
|
||
|
Commodified
Trust in rust in offices all ossified
Bailing out a hole against a rising tide
Woe betide they defy vox populi
Vote for the same thing again and again
Democracide, state of decay, we lost our way

Five More Years
02:08
|
|
||
|
We sat in stunned silence as they read the result
As the corrupt billionaire personality cult
Saw the desired effect of propaganda control
Now ‘hard working families’ can’t be consoled
Five more years of this fucking shit
Five more years can’t deal with it
The right seeks converts, the left seeks traitors
Too busy squabbling to stop dictators
Selling them shit by selling them papers
Educate another generation of waiters
Five more years legalising theft
Five more years won’t be nothing left
