lyrics

I put on my best suit, and walked out the door
I put on my best hat, i couldn't feel anymore
I went out jobseeking but they told me i was too old
I went out jobseeking then i went back on the dole

Maybe i'm just too old and maybe i'm too young
I shouldn't be on sick pay, i should take care of my own
We know what is right and we know that greed is good
Its every man for himself and i shouldn't expect help from you

My country is self harming, its cutting the poor away
My country is self harming, we can't let them get away, with it

Of course everyone should pay their way
But how can they pay when you took their jobs away
I kept my own but i see this is gonna hurt
I'm not gonna stand here and watch my people burn

I see your razorblade
Its cutting the poison away
Cut them out of london and cut them out of towns
Cut them out of your sight so they won't get you down

My country is self harming, its cutting the poor away
My country is self harming, we can't let them get away, with it
