So desperate to blame,
To free us of shame.
Genocide now a game,
But not in your name?
Abandon the past;
Change is a present.
Nothing broken can last,
We must be prescient.
It’s always the fault,
Of that last assault,
Then it’s back to default;
Not one worth their salt.
Hold up a mirror,
Question your stance;
Our leaders are killers,
Now is our chance.
Stop splitting the rage
From gender to age,
Race or minimum wage;
Let’s start a new page.
No more made bitter,
By parties or views.
A chance to be better;
Make our own news.
Nothing will change
As long as we’re stuck
With leaders, deranged,
Who don’t give a fuck.
Down on our luck,
Just keep passing the buck,
Austerity struck;
Please. Please wake up.
