Billy Bragg
Days Like These [UK Version]
The party that became so powerful by sinkingForeign boatsIs dreaming up new promises because promisesWin votesAnd being resolute in conference with theAd man's expertiseThe majority by their silence shall pay for days like theseThe right to build communities is back behindClosed doors'tween government and people stands the right armOf the lawAnd shame upon the patriot when the mark of theBulldog breedIs a family without a home and a pensioner in needThose whose lives are ruled by dogma are waitingFor a signThe better dead than red brigade are listening on the lineAnd the liberal, with a small l cries in front of the TVAnd another demonstration passes on to historyPeace, bread, work, and freedom is the best weCan achieveAnd wearing badges is not enough in days like these
