lyrics

And they think we can re-train
Cracking their whip
Lashes, red licks of pain

We'll give as good as we get

Evil grins on twisted faces
Their mask has slipped, corruption and complacence

We'll give as good as we get

It’s just a joke
A snide little poke
They have to amuse themselves somehow

But I think we’ll get the last laugh
Yes, I think we’ll get the last laugh
They just don’t know it yet

And they think we can be subdued
Minimise the numbers
Re-calculate our value

We calculate their- value too

They could be picking teeth off the floor
They could soon regret how they’ve treated the poor
They just don’t know it yet

It’s just a joke
A snide little poke
I have to amuse myself somehow

They could be slowly crushed under my boot
When I forget to remove my foot
When I forget to be so forgiving
Don’t forget the only reason you’re living
Is that we haven’t revolted yet
Yes of course we could learn a multitude of skills

That teach us how to perfect a kill
How to skin a Tory shill
How to butcher a Tory pig

They just don’t know it yet
They just don’t know it yet

They underestimate us so much
We can use it to our advantage
And plan our subtle revolt

If even a fraction of us took to the streets
The chaos we could cause, so sweet
Their faces, a picture, a treat
No more turning the other cheek

It’s just a little joke,
The elite class of ultra conservative
Lobbyists, who fund the government
And get special favours
And get their backs rubbed
And take back handers
I sn’t it all so funny
How they have all the power
So arrogant they are
That they’ll literally make fun of us peasants

THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE CAPABLE OF
AND THEY’RE AFRAID OF US
AND THEY SHOULD BE AFRAID OF US

They genuinely believe they’ll get away with this
Indefinitely
Which amuses me, greatly
Because I see what’s coming
And I can’t wait to see their faces
In the wake of our vengeance
It will be bloody, uncompromising and sweet

Hey, It’s just a little joke, guys
Like an ad campaign, telling people to re-train
Just a little dig, a little knock on the armour

They could be writing their death warrant
They just don’t know it yet
