Politicians - Miss Trouble & the Velvet Vetos

[Verse 1] Politicians the world over Sit and discuss how to fuck us over With the businessmen who give them directorships On their boards [Verse 2] And everywhere I see aging people Who fought the wars to keep society stable Now they lose their homes when the banker they come and take them [Chorus] No nothing changes the bastards are still at the top No nothing changes the bastards are still at the top [Verse 3] And I see many of our countries children Broke, sad mad and disillusioned Their backroom, deals and policy changes, were the work of Satan [Solo dirty rock n roll electric guitar] [Verse 4] Corupt, installed elitist, Mark Carney Finds Government funds to give to his kin for cheap He's got bonds and stocks, directorships and all our taxes to keep him warm at night [Verse 5] Fuck off you pig why don't you get out my face You work for this regime that's built on hate Delegated, monarchistic dictatorship I say Anyway you look at it it's shit [Verse 6] Deep in the heart of Jerusalem See many men they fight and they fight for freedom But by raping women and killing babies, do they think that one day they'll be free? [Verse 7] So where is the root of all this evil? That destroys lives and builds these stupid people? How many men colluded to make the chains that we all wear? How many men colluded to make the chains that we all wear? [Chorus] No nothing changes the bastards are still at the top No nothing changes the bastards are still at the top [Solo, dirtortion delay and melodic sustained notes, and feedback] [Verse 8] And everywhere that I do roam See people too afraid to stand up on their own Too afraid to stand up for their rights against those bastards who make us all fight [Verse 9] Take to my head with a hammer To bully me to think the way that you do Too many men live their lives this way and that's why we're all fucked Too many women live their lives this way and that's why we're all fucked Too many men live their lives this way and that's why it's all fucked Too many politicians live their life this way Such a lying bastards [Outro] (Instrumental) ------------------------------------------------------------ Politicians - Miss Trouble & the Velvet Vetos ------------------------------------------------------------ (Lyrics Copyright © 2000 +2026 [updated] Martin Parnell.
