lyrics

You want the whole truth?
No, nothing but the fable
Where the bum from the slum
Begging crumb from the table
Gets rich
That's the pitch from the top
They want you on the ladder
But afraid of the drop
And on the fast track
In the race to the bottom
You want a sadsack, mac?
Boy, we got em
Puffed up now but there's nothing much sadder
Than a poor boy thinking
That the snake will hold the ladder

And that's you
More fool you

If it's up to you
Then we're never gonna stop it
Cos you're all right, Jack
You got money in your pocket
And you'd never stoop down
Down for a brother
Cos the world revolves around you
And there's no room for another
And it's me, me, me
F*** em if they riot
Cos nothing ain't worth nothing
No, no, not if you can't buy it
And it's you, you. you
And the cap you're doffing
You know the cost of everything
The value of a-nothing

And it's you
More fool you

Word to the wise, guys
Look em in the eyes, guys
Nothing ain't worth nothing
Til they're dropping the disguise, guys
Rise, rise, rise
Til you're toppling the table
Sick of bumming crumbs
From the strong and stable rich?
Yeah, the rich get richer
No trickle down nothing
In the new blue scripture
They hit ya
And they hit ya
Hit and hit and hit
Until you see the bigger picture
Any day now it'll all turn sour
More class war from the corridors of power

That's you
More fool you
