lyrics

Year after year and nothing’s changed
I’m writing a letter to the Government!
It’s about time for a new way to think
Read my letter to the Government!
Thank you government – for murderous drones
Thank you government – you’re bleedin’ us dry!
Thank you government – corporate owned
Thank you government – we’re buried alive!

The message isn’t new, but ignored all the same
It’s in my letter to the Government!
Get off your asses and get on the train
And read my letter to the Government!
Thank you government – We’re losing our homes
Thank you government – you’re bleedin’ us dry!
Thank you government – corporate owned
Thank you government – for usual lies!

Your institution, our constitution
Says we the people, for one and all
Vets sacrifice and get nothin’ in return
You line your pockets, showing fake concern
We all see, a two-headed snake
You don’t give a damn if we all go away
We drown in your lies, but we’re gonna uprise
It’s not a compromise, puttn’ truth your eyes!

Bought by the bastards with big bank accounts
It’s in my letter to the Government!
Do-nothin’ mega-lo-maniacs Just read my letter to the Government!
Thank you government – for murderous drones
Thank you government – you’re bleedin’ us dry!
Thank you government – corporate owned
Thank you government – we’re buried alive!
