now im going to be frank honest i will
so when your lookin for a name to blame it wont be phil
we got the imf all over our backs
international monetary fuckers raising tax
the ecb its like its omg
there'll be no lol when we raise v a t
where the e is for europe the c is for cash
the b is for bailout sure we'll give it a lash
giving out about this household tax yer jokin
its like 2 euro a week whats the big commotion
its a steal sorry bad choice of words i mean its
a steal paying to clean up the bird shit
now yer running campaigns against paying yer way
we can always find a way say take it from your pay
im practically breakin me back tryin to cut you a deal
im in your corner and im eatin your meal
a public servant im servin the public
sloppy seconds welcome to the bend over republic
we're gonna work that ass pimp out the pale
we'll run this country into the ground n then bail
out, n if our policies should stall or threaten to fail
we can always intimidate you with the threat of jail
we'll keep beating you down with austerity all the while
introduce each increase with a sympathetic smile
like the famine you'll be atin clovers off the floor
til you give up hangin on set sail to foreign shores
so before i sign this bill i ask you to pay
attention bend over but first let me say

now the opposition need to understand before they say
dont pay you people are easily led astray
thats irresponsible behaviour i'll explain
your not to be trusted with havin anything to gain
by thinking for yerself you might try to jump ship
bail out on the bail out we'll never get to function
now we cant have the whole country up in arms
upstarts creatin alarm does more harm
there'll be no money left in the cash machines
if you dont pay the taxes when its asked of yee
now ive nothing but sympathy i understand your pain
i know theres lots of people out there feeling the strain
sure jaysus aint i the same
i have big clinic office in the city centre to maintain
the minister for delegating social inequality
and once we've raped an already dying economy
its important for you to remember that

what we have here for you a new social contract
you need to accept the cuts n the hikes in yer tax
its a small price to pay to get the cuntry on track
so come and join our game your defence we're on attack
theres no i in team theres no u in wealth
but theres an o in debt n that'll b yourself
without you how are we supposed to succeed
n if we dont then you wont get the hospital you need
the economy will bleed the structure will collapse
you'll be left without a future never mind the past
if you sign on the welfare we need you to be clear
we've got unemployment schemes where we'll make you volunteer
educations getting cut but dont worry its been sorted
unskilled = lower wages = we'll afford it
with profits on the increase we'll arise from the ashes
sing a nation once again until again it all crashes
