we’re getting fucked by the man
tryin’ to do the best we can
to reverse this disaster plan
take back our will and our fucking lives
they’ve got us by the fucking throat
soon we’ll have them by the scrote
forget about your useless vote
and grind those gears down to a fucking halt!
what makes them think they run the world
just cuz they got the money and the guns?
what makes them think they run the world?
a general strike would show those fucking cunts
did you have a sub-prime loan?
an underpass is now your new home
have you tried the Superdome?
pull on those bootstraps just a little harder
because you sow what you’ll reap
or so say the faithful sheep
their castle and their fucking keep
have enough bricks to fill our idle hands
chorus
drop the hammer, pick up a brick
drop the hammer, pick up a brick
drop the fucking hammer, throw a fucking brick
drop the fucking hammer, throw a fucking brick
they’ve got dollar signs for eyes
and soon we’ll rake them fucking blind
searching forever to find
whatever happened to their precious profit margins
and we gotta unify
and the message amplify
the end is surely fucking nigh
we gotta burn
burn those bastards out
