Lyrics

Working a 9-5 for some prick you despise, and there's no money to be made in an industry that's already failed. Treats you like a peasant and spits you back out into pieces. And you've every reason to be annoyed begging to get a gig so you can play in front of 15 piss heads. And it takes balls to do what I do stand here in front of you I get the most support from total strangers and that statement says it all. It's nice to be nice but sometimes you reach your limit trying to live and survive when everyone around you is a sheep with a desk job, taking orders with no bite in their life it's a society made to benefit the elite and rip everyone else off.
And our politicians are landlords and our landlords are politicians. It's an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Spitting the same lies they'll make sheep of your life.
And remember why you're living at home at 30 and why your 30 living at home with no hope to be known and remember why you are sitting in a waiting room with a leg hanging off and remember when you're paying your life away in taxes, just remember that the last 12 years are on the ones in charge the irresponsible coffin dodgers. And never give up on the life you deserve. We're born we live and eventually die and I'm not here to sugarcoat it for you. And that's why you paid ten pounds to get in tonight to have someone like me tell you it's not gonna be alright. And I don't massage egos that's why we don't get along you're part of the problem. Friends being forced on planes and that was the better option.
Our politicians are landlords and our landlords are politicians. It's an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Spitting the same lies they'll make sheep of your life. They'll make sheep of your life. And it's nice to be nice but sometimes you'll reach your fucking limit.
Having traitors in charge would make you lose your mind and if you take it at face value you'll be made a sheep your entire life. And I've a pain in my hole listening to these lies. Fawlty towers always comes to mind. And I've a hole in my heart telling me things just aren't right and that's why I made this song for you to listen to. And having doubt is the only thing that will ever hold you back. And if I was still sitting
beside you I'd be half a mile back. And having doubt is the only thing that will ever hold you back.
