Populism from Tooth & Nail by COPE

Out of luck cos it’s not enough
Forgotten by those who’ve made it tough
A lost generation with little hope
Against the wall with hands on our throats

They’re grinding us down to the bone
A heavy crown on an unworthy throne
No longer survivalists
We’ll be dead before we’ve lived

They can’t be saved
So we won’t be played
We must do all we can
For the way to be paved
They won’t be saved
So we can’t be played
We must do all we can
For the old ideals to fade

We are the ones that’ll suffer
But our children will have it tougher
The old will eat the young
Their ideals finally won

Bathing in new found wealth
Only nurturing oneself
Look at the world with dismay
We’ve been abandoned, left to decay
We’ve been abandoned
We’ve been abandoned, left to decay

They can’t be saved
So we won’t be played
We must do all we can
For the way to be paved
They won’t be saved
So we can’t be played
We must do all we can
For the old ideals to fade
