killdren - expect a crimewave lyrics
[verse 1]
electoral fraud
and tax evasion
outright lies
and fabrication
backhanders to chums
diddling the sums
seems to me it’s a… (“krimewave!”)
broken promises
and worthless doublespeak
once the people’s saviour
now corruption at its peak
expenses, fraud
and arms sales abroad
vested interests
and a chance to be a lord
tax cuts for
the wealthy
and privatisation
that is stealthy
failed at life
but minus the strife?
don’t worry dear –
we’ll make you a peer
(“uk used to mean united kingdom, but ask anyone today and they’ll tеll you it stands for unbelievable krimеwave!”)
[chorus]
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
expect a crimewave!
expect a crimewave!
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
expect a crimewave!
expect a crimewave!
[verse 2 + female vocalist, then male vocalist]
they’re the real criminals
the real benefits street
we subsidise their lifestyles
working to keep them sweet
they’d have the shirt off your back
and make you beg for your dinner
you’ve got the rules wrong
we can’t all be a winner…
swanning and swindling and
riding the gravy train
getting caught makes no difference
it’s simple and plain
they’re hooky, they’re crooked
they’re as bent as a two bob note
and all they do is grin and gloat!
when you want someone banged up
for going on a bender
but you’re all out boshing coke
top wage and big spenders
when you block legalisation
for cannabis production
but your husband owns a ganja farm
with no obstruction
we’d lose our rights
zero hours, or benefits claim
they’d file for more expenses
‘cos they’ve rigged the game!
(“uk… stands for unbelievable krimewave!”)
[chorus]
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
expect a crimewave!
expect a crimewave!
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
expect a crimewave!
expect a crimewave!
[bridge + alternating vocalists]
so get out there and do some crimes!
obeying the law is not a sign of the times
be dishonest, embrace corrupt
it’s one+up for me, let the streets erupt
why should we not make up our own rules –
when a moral compass is clearly for fools?
we can decide what to do with our own life
no one should be surprised that crime is so rife?
[chorus]
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
expect a crimewave!
expect a crimewave!
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
one rule for them and another for us
expect a crimewave!
expect a crimewave!
[outro]
when you can’t remember
owning extra houses
when you can’t remember
if you cheated on your spouses
when you talk about
being guided by god
but your husband has investments
in missiles, the sod
(“uk used to mean united kingdom, but ask anyone today and they’ll tell you it stands for unbelievable krimewave!”)
