It's Time
Lyrics:
Life is tougher
Like quicksand
People suffer
No cash in hand
Prices rising
More everyday
Not surprising
We struggle to pay
You can’t see what’s going on
You don’t know what’s going wrong
Stand back please
And open your eyes
See the pain, hear the sighs
It’s time to get out and
Shed your cool veneer
It’s time to find out
What it is like to live in fear
Solid insulation
Protects you from strife
Serious inflation
No threat to life
Money you spend
Is always replaced
Your share dividend
Protects your space
You can’t see what’s going on
You don’t know what’s going wrong
Stand back please
And open your eyes
See the pain, hear the sighs
You dance and swing
And show us charm
Pretend that you cause us no harm
There must be a human inside
That knows that to themself they lied
It’s time to notice
The world of Camden Town
It’s time to see those
People struggling all around
It’s time to show us
You understand the grind
It’s time to do something
For humankind
Outside your bubble
People exist
Mounting trouble
Response with a fist
Criminalisation
You know that’s right
Incarceration
Poverty out of sight
You can’t see what’s going on
You don’t know what’s going wrong
Stand back please
And open your eyes
See the pain, hear the sighs
