Why are our bodies not immune from the cold
While our anger reaches boiling point?
And tears freeze, bellies hum with hunger
In Western democracy, not remote Siberia?
Dark times ahead, bleakness to fill days
Seasons of depression, as we turn off the lights,
Once we allow household bills to go up
They will never go down again,
While some get obscenely rich
Profiteers of misery, counting their cash,
Pushing us to an ever extreme edge
Stripping away structures of protection,
As icy homes feel the wicked winds that blow
Do we keep on swallowing poisoned medicine,
From people who want us to believe
That the gift of Socialism is really bad,
Bleeding the nation, bleeding us dry
They continue to rob us every hour,
We are running out of bloody luck
And the Government don't give a fuck,
We can't afford to give up, lose self respect
This system is a failure, we have to change her,
Give energy back to the nation, solidarity to neighbours
Refuse the grasping hand of negligent corporations,
In order to survive, proclaim loudly our defiance
Stop menacing claws of capitalism, trying to kill us.
