a history of violence - politics lyrics

[intro: the etherealist]
on may the 8th 2015, the united kingdom re-elected the conservative party to government. confirming the future of the nhs; confirming the future of tuition fees; confirming the uk’s position with the eu
(…but he would see this country burn if he could be king of the ashes.)

[hook: the etherealist]
the government is evil; politics’ a business
dollar, dollar, dollar: the only reason they in this
given the chance, they’d silence m-sses in an instance
and you can bet that corruption will be consistent
[x2]

[verse 1: the etherealist]
the government doesn’t give a f-ck. they want us dead; they want us p-ssing blood
they’d step over bodies of children to fill their pockets up
no matter who holds the power, they’re all the f-cking same
right and left views are just p-wns in a chess game
of course the parties never stick to their pledges
they never planned to. they just wait it out till it edges
out of the media cross-hair. yeah, they -ssume you’re dumb as f-ck
they can say whatever: you’ll forget it in a f-cking month
no party’s ever gonna try to save the nhs
cause privatisation’s in every politician’s interest
no sh-t they want to own a part of such a valued -sset
and promising to help the poor is such a f-cking cl-ssic
but they still spit it at each election just out of habit
cause they know you’ll suck that sh-t up like a f-cking magnet
politics’ a business: profit margins like a drug racket
remember that sh-t when you put your cross on that ballot

[hook]

[verse 2: in2ition]
we’re not third-world here, so tell me why are people starving?
people using food banks cause otherwise they be dying
mothers and fathers crying to their children
not knowing what to tell them when they’re asking
you presume the government is there for you but it’s not
they dodge tax and make cuts
man, they’re not there for us. they’re just dangerous
claim they’ve made jobs when so many are still unemployed
claim they’ve made peace when soldiers are still deployed
straining our country with their privileged eaton noise
they don’t know at all what it’s like to live our lives
to struggle through day-by-day, hoping that no more bills come our way
abstaining from mending things that are broken
stressing and concerning about food tokens
your baby’s screaming from starvation and being woken
they’re sitting in a golden throne, laughing and joking
this country is choking

[hook]
