Can’t you see them getting away with it?

Scott fucking free.

These right-wing press barons,

the vultures of our culture,

feeding off the weary working-class.

They serve the rich,

call others “elite”,

while owning the Ritz!

They stir the pot,

manipulate.

They manufacture hate.

Employing falsehoods to misdirect

just anger of the hard life lived

away from those responsible. 

Fixing your rage on your fellow man and woman,

struggling just like you.

The papers turned you on your co-workers,

dividing by nationality.

They share your low pay,

they aren’t the cause.

But the papers tell you to blame the immigrant.

For your boss that sets your wage:

Terribly convenient.

The papers turned you on the other patients,

ill people in the waiting room.

Claiming widespread health tourism.

The papers tell you to blame the immigrant,

For the architects of austerity:

Terribly convenient.

The papers turned you on your neighbours.

They made you believe

migrants made your life harder:

There’s too many, so we have to leave.

The papers tell you to blame the immigrant,

For the rich and for government:

Terribly convenient.
