lyrics

The world is burning.
The glass all in shards.
The old say keep it turning
The young are up in arms.

We're broke and we're restless
cuz all we have is bandwidth.
And wages haven't risen
Since I've been alive.
If you won't budge I'll implore
Cuz folks are sharpening pitchforks.
Singing, "give us bread or we'll eat the rich instead".

The wildcats are howling
"please give us more"
The police are scowling
and beating on the poor.

They take the lives that matter
while claiming they're the ones.
While the dead have empty pockets
and they have loaded guns.

The bald man is going
to space on a rocket ship.
While poor folks are hurting
and no one gives a shit.

We're broke and we're reckless
cuz all we have is bandwidth.
And wages haven't risen
Since I've been alive.
If you won't budge I'll implore
Cuz folks are sharpening pitchforks.
Singing, "give us bread or we'll eat the rich instead".
