These lyrics were written especially with Old Fart in mind
Me thinks it should part of his musical at Capital Threatre
The people that you projected us as
We were nothing of the sort, sold us all short
Put down the champagne, no toast to the legacy
(no way) And all the propaganda of prosperity
That's what a machine does and they don't need therapy
You turned us into a nation of haters
Far-right appeaser/ believer in whatever get you leader
Dog whistle through the speakers
see who bites it, I noticed a hell of a lot of people liked it
An ethical choice is simpler if you price it
Conquer by dividing that's why you admired him?
unless pushed we would never have retired him
f**kin pirate history will damn him
once it seemed like nothing could damage him
{Unkle Ho spits something in Mandarin}
Crook, you got your arse played in Mandarin!
Finally the King is Dead, we cried off with his head
Everything must change (Everything must change), everything must change
We dance like New Years Eve, we dance from relief, everything must change
(Nothing stays the same), Nothing stays the same oh
Nothing stays the same ohhh
