lyrics

Commonwealth

Creaking, constricting,
the walls are coming down,
cracking, crumbling,
it’s all coming down!

Lives tossed away
like trash under our feet,
social wealth taken
and bet on the street.

Boxed in at work,
trapped out of place,
shit out of luck,
left lurking in the dark.

Creaking, constricting,
the walls are coming down,
cracking, crumbling,
it’s all coming down!

Lives tossed away
like trash under our feet,
social wealth taken
and bet on the street.

Boarded up shops
and gutted out homes,
just left to rot
by the prosperous ones.

Gluttonous fools,
now look at you –
fat, drugged, complacent,
failing to be perfect.
Don’t try to run,
you won’t get too far,
accept what you know,
lay down and die!

But for those who still care
STAND UP AND FIGHT!
Don’t take too much
and do what is right.

Wealth is not prosperity,
neither is it status quo,
