Lyrics
You say we need a big society;
It sounds like revolution
But still smells like bullshit.
It’s not enough
To claim tough love
When you just punish the poor man
For believing your bullshit.
Time was we’d hit the streets:
A nation voting with its feet,
But I walk alone now.
Time was we’d all join hands
And sing until you changed your plans,
But I’m just one voice now.
You might know best
But I’ll lean left:
A one-man revolution
Is still doing something.
Time was we’d hit the streets:
A nation voting with its feet,
But I walk alone now.
