STAND UP
So you stand up on that podium
Looking out toward the crowd
The people of your country
With worry on their brows
So long have they been lied to
They dread to show some hope
There's nothing left to take from them
Most have ceased to cope
Many of them homeless
Starving, drained and ill
Working to exhaustion
And still can't pay the bills
From income tax to council tax
The only word is rise
They tell their kids 'no meal tonight'
With desperation in their eyes
Services are cut
Benefits are slashed
Open season for our jobs
And disability is bashed
So as our future leader
Can you fix a ruptured vein
Can you make our nation strong
Brings its heart beat back again
Or are you merely full of shit
Adding to the rot
Making empty promises
As your country stands forgot
