Hold My Beer 03:18
They strip away our rights The future isn't bright We're forced to work until we die We've turned against ourselves We buy the shit they sell And we've convinced ourselves it's fine Fuelled by corporations, and private educations You're so out of touch and, you don't give a fuck about The mess you're making, the lives you're not saving You're just playing a game, with our lives Hold my beer while I fuck it up even more They care for no one else Compassion's been bred out They rule, they ruin, they demand Exploit the northern towns To earn a million pounds These deals are always under-hand Building a foundation, on fascist aspirations You're not wanted here 'cos you only give a fuck about Money making, scoring points and saving face You're just posturing and, making it worse Hold my beer while I fuck it up even more "OK tarquin, so here's what we're going to do. I've taken out a small sum, just a couple of mill, to buy up this fabulous row of terraces in a valley somewhere up north. They need a bit of work but one of daddies friends says his company will fix them up for us, and then we can rent them out to the local people. It'll really expand our portfolio, along with the village hall, and I got it for an absolute steal" "Well, a few weeks ago several of them burned down, but luckily there was a storm which helped put the fires out, but erm then flooded the rest. The people were going to sleep in the village hall, but we just couldn't find the keys anywhere. It's not all doom and gloom, the insurace payout was at twice what we spent , so the next round is on me" Hold my beer while I fuck it up even more

You know we can't compare our futures With your final salary When you're buying second homes, without a loan and we're Paying rental fees And I'm not asking for equality, for me, 'cos millions need it more But a little less opposition, to our position and understanding would be fair This is who we are We are the lost generations, we are the sons you left behind We are your daughters husbands, not able to provide, what you expect we should, we never got the chance we were sold a life, they knew we wouldn't have You know it's clear from your mindset You're got so much left to learn In a, world obsessed, with pointing out what's best and Drawing lines that we don't need And I'm so sick of feeling this divide, spread by headlines, that marginalise lives And you're constant fucking fascination, with segmentation, when we're all just, human beings This is who we are We are the lost generations, we are the sons you left behind We are your daughters husbands, not able to provide What you expect we should, we never got the chance We were sold a life, they knew we wouldn't have We are, the lost, generations We are, your daughters husbands, and wives We are, pretending that we're fine but We are, witnessing the rise of a Government, we publically despise and a Hatred, that's fuelled by their lies, and the Decline, of a fragile society

There were times I was broken I've been misunderstood There were times that I thought I was lost for good There were times I was outcast Outcast and alone There were times I was silenced and unknown And sometimes I think that the distance between us, is too far And sometimes I lay awake in the night, and lose myself to the dark There were times I was lifeless On the edge of the world These are things that can never be un-learned There are times in the shadows Just before the dawn Moments I wish I had never been born And sometimes I think that the distance between us, is too far And sometimes I lay awake in the night, and lose myself to the dark And sometimes I think that the darkness is right And I lose myself to the dark

We set aside our differences And we won't leave our homes We know its not your fault this started in the first place We expect responsibility There's lives in your hands We know its not the time to fight about the little things (any more) Forced to put our trust in the people we don't trust How can we know truth when its been only lies so far We're try'na to work together We're try'na to make the best of it We're trying not to show our children that we're scared Your cavalier attitude shows You're way out of your depth You clearly lack the skills to lead in times of crisis (or at all) Forced to put our trust in the people who don't give a fuck, about us How can we know truth when you're all fucking liars Forced to put our trust in the people who don't give a fuck, about us How will we know truth, if we've all fucking died.

Alla i deimlo, newid yn yr awyr Alla i glywed, anniddigrwydd Wnawn ni gorwedd lawr, a gwrando ar gelwyddau Wnawn ni syrthio, wnawn ni ymladd nôl? Sefwch lan, sefwch lan Codwch eich lleisiau yn uchel, wnewch wahaniaeth Dyn i'n rhedeg mas o amser (rhedeg mas o amser) Agorwch eich llygad, meddyliwch am y dyfodol Cyn iddi rhy hwyr Alla i edrych, ein llywodraeth, a chymdeithas, newid am y waeth Ydym ni'n hapus gyda byd rhanedig, ble mae'r hiliaeth, ble mae'r trachwant Sefwch lan, sefwch lan Codwch eich lleisiau yn uchel, wnewch wahaniaeth Dyn i'n rhedeg mas o amser (rhedeg mas o amser) Agorwch eich llygad, meddyliwch am y dyfodol Cyn iddi rhy hwyr
