lyrics

There is 'nough love to throw around so this is how it's going down
Living in an overcrowded urban aorta
Thames water coursing talks the coarser course of civilisation
Stationed by the river bank
I shiver as the banks get bigger
Trading figures while the little mans digging for some change
Some heart the mudlarks loan sharks, paper trail brown packets digital consumptions
Less town halls- more living room functions.
Exchange is faceless but you're far from anonymous.
Big up all the borrowers who live in the metropolis
Squatters who fight the monolith of Moloch that demolishes,
Twist your bollocks, with a crisp collar.
Fist un-clenched and smiling
Outsourcing violence from a safe distance
Off-setting sins to the infant herded up by the infantry
See the chain of connections, we'd have to change instantly
At least you'd think so
Well worn lingo leaves us limbering in limbo
Malingering, my inklings we're on the brink of grim shitty sin-city sink or swim so
new loans longer strings-attached
Limbs collapse to the puppet master
Finger trap deadly catch
Back break snapped straight but Freedom's yours you gotta get it back
Get it back.

Free
All I want to be is F R double E
Free

IMF, supervising giant theft
Stifling the giant steps of others with a rifle in Gaia's breast
Fuck, I confess I feel hopeless
To make more money people invest in death.
Absurd as it sounds, as cruel as it seems
All concerned about the ends no one cares about the means
Still all about the C.R.E.A.M all about the green paper
people chasing gold in their dreams
The PMs trademark duplicity
Way past slippery arms dealing arms far reaching
Mr Fantastic Holds the glass ceiling...
At the banquet, Table Head,
Playing ftse by the table leg
And the dow jones Petroleum Al Capone,
My how the falcon's flown can't we outgrow
the tendency greed and oppression?
If anything Freedom's a question,
Irrepressible the pressure full and simmering
The wrecking ball of decimals a chimera
But still the progress is similar
fast trot forgotten past
Blasting through the Appalachians
toxic lake by the river basin
a gift for the first nations
A pot latch; You get what you give you got that, plus some more atop that
global forces amalgamate
The Tensions about to break!

Police target the weak, guarding the C-EOs
Oil-slick mark of the beast
The Creep into parliament speak,
Arming the fleet till their armed to the teeth
I see the cutty sark in the fleet
out the harbour
past the shark with the gnarliest teeth
Glass faces the spaces I can't really see
-The market's like a balaclava guarding a thief.
You need time to let the market's all breathe
Give it a chance and you'll see the market's all speak
But Here I hear the market hall creak
there used to be bartering, carving and speech.
They Show you round with the sparkling teeth
Kicking out all the residents they mark up the street
People are target markets arguably
Bar-codes replace their arms and their feet.
Fuck. My glass heart starts to bleed.
I see the glass on the street.
Fuck. My glass heart starts to bleed.
I see the glass on the street.
