Days Like These Lyrics

The party that became so powerful,
By sinking foreign boats,
Is dreaming up new promises,
Cause promises win votes.
And being resolute in conference,
At the adman's expertise,
The majority buy their silence,
Shall pay for days like these.

The right to build communities,
Is back, behind closed doors.
Between government and people stands
The right arm of the law.
And shame upon the patriot,
When the mark of the bulldog breed,
Is a family without a home,
And a pensioner in need.

Those whose lives are ruled by Dogma,
Who are waiting for a sign.
The better dead than red brigade,
Are listening on the line.
And a liberal, with a small L,
Cries in front of the TV,
And another demonstration,
Passes on to history.

Peace bread work and freedom
Is the best we can achieve,
And wearing badges is not enough,
In days like these.
