Bugger

The Bankers

When I was a lass I was proud of my class,

Soprani
like my father and mother before me

Alti They taught me to fight for my civil rights,

S/A but it’s always the same old story

Alti The rich reign supreme while the poor can but dream

S/A under Labour or Liberal or Tory, and I say (tutti)

Bugger the bankers and politicians, bugger the bureaucrats too
Bugger the buggers who make up the rules
And if you're one of them - bugger you (bis)

The system is bent and the money’s all spent,
Basses
we’re badgered from every direction

Alti Basses The workers get taxed while the wealthy relax

Soprani with nary a moment’s reflection

Alti Where there’s brass, there’s muck

and they don’t give an arse

Tutti
‘Cos we’re programmed against insurrection, and I say

REFRAIN + Charlie Harmo

Now all you good people with passion to vent,
Alti
don’t give up the struggle for justice
Soprani But I’ve done my time on the protesters’ line

S/A and these days I show my dissent

Tutti By loitering within my tent, and I say -

REFRAIN X 2
And if you're one of them - bugger you X 3
