They spew forth ***** and bitter bile
As they spin their deceitful web of lies
The common man to take and hold
Their seat to win by ways not bold
Not for us do they want political power
Not for us do they want better
But rather a name up high in lights
Though we be the ones who work and fight
We who as a nation once held heads high
We the ones who once would fight and die
To keep our nation proud and free
A nation once born of democracy
Perhaps 'tis that I'm just growing old
And must conform or so I'm told
Adapt to the ways of this modern life
Of food banks for the poor, overstretched national health
The nearest hospital now over 30 miles away
Along a road over crowded both night and day
Far enough away so that people die
Because the ambulances can't get through
Our land overburdened by immigrants
And an infrastructure that can no longer cope
And so the people now must suffer
The lies and deceit of those we empower
To serve our will
