'Bugger The Bankers'
"When I was a lass I was proud of my class, like my father and mother before me
They taught me to fight for my civil rights, but it's always the same old story –
The rich reign supreme while the poor can but dream under Labour or Liberal or Tory
And I say -
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
And if you're one of them - bugger you

The system is bent and the money's all spent, we're badgered from every direction
The workers get taxed while the wealthy relax with nary a moment's reflection
Where there's brass, there's muck and they don't give an arse
'Cos we're programmed against insurrection
And I say -
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
And if you're one of them - bugger you

Now all you good people with passion to vent, don't give up the struggle for justice
But I've done my time on the protesters' line and these days I show my dissent
By loitering within my tent
And I say -
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
And if you're one of them - bugger you, oh

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
And if you're one of them - bugger you
And if you're one of them - bugger you"
