Scam

You say you fight to give us freedom

But often more than not this is abused

And the faces of a tired generation

Have decided they are sick of being used

For the purpose of current declarations

Still the same it will never change until the end

Is to buy the appreciation of the nation

To cover the mistakes you must defend

And you say there will be a chance for eveyone

To protest against your calculated greed

But I can see into the future

Wont be long before the welfare

Send me letters telling me how much they need

And its not been in my interest to please them

For the only interest rate to fall is mine

See a brand new generation is demanding

What youve been doing with our money all this time

Scam people try to live at the speed of light

Scam dont know why but Ive got to do the things I do

Scam give me ten thats the move I give you five

Scam people say its the way to stay alive

So you see you have to be a schemer

If you wanna love the life you have to live

And I dont matter how much I earn

Cos I always get my fingers burned

When the man gets down to his business

And Ive been searching for a reason

Why I have to give it all up just I want to get ahead

See I had to lose car job wife dog and home

Debts and threats on the phone

Maybe I should bust a move instead

Now we all know when we watch television

Not confused between a puppet or conviction

Glued to the screen by a thousand shallow words of wisdom

It aint what it seems when its a single sided system

Someones got to hold on my living

So Im gonna have to do the thing thats fair

They got to justify for what I should be giving

Should I lie should I steal or should I care

Cos now Ive got to scam
