| Ok, lets set this straight
|
| We have a joke of a welfare system
|
| That we just won’t tolerate
|
| And one day you’ll have to listen
|
| 'cos, what’s more there’s major flaws
|
| With our views on immigration
|
| We always attack the symptom not the cause
|
| And don’t address this: global deprivation
|
| Seems like we avoid the truth
|
| We need a deeper understanding
|
| Education of the youth
|
| Inequity disbanded
|
| The interests of the rich prevail
|
| And they’re far from humanist
|
| The hegemonic base will fail
|
| And social justice will persist
|
| A cultural upheaval and an overhaul of the state
|
| Our institutions are breaking down
|
| We want change before its too late
|
| We shut ourselves away
|
| Won’t accept our responsibilities
|
| But through our unfair trade
|
| We have a role in creating poverty
|
| This is kept out of sight
|
| Mayb we’re too inward looking
|
| A narrow view of human rights
|
| Makes it hard for some to find a footing
|
| Seems like we avoid the truth
|
| We need a deeper understanding
|
| Education of the youth
|
| Inequity disbanded
