Something to Eat - Jamie Webster

Trouble at mill, I think I'm losing the will
To take another merry go around the block
The hard working man can't fill a gasoline can
And now it seems, there's less hours on each clock

Frightening still, the thought of paying the bills
The prices rise, but the living wages certainly don't
Half of the nation's working two occupations
But nobody can stay afloat

So why don't they like you?
Do you have to ask?
They don't like being lied to
By your sincere masks

As you set them trials and tasks
That you both know they can't complete
While the ever rising energy bills
Put them on the street
Played in a game where they can't compete
Cracks in the ground underneath their feet
Trying to get themselves something to eat

Everybody's fighting
Union called a strike in
No trains to work
So you'll have to take the bike in
Suits of the cause
Make an exit plan
Even after calling on the Brexit scam

Hey you, what's your word?
And are you saying all these things because of stories you've heard?
Well, I'm here to tell ya
Life ain't everything they sell ya
Being honest, it's a bit of a farce
Just a world of politicians with their heads up their arses and
I hate to break it
It's on you if you're gonna make it

So why don't you like us?
I think I have to ask
Is there something inside us
That makes you wear that mask?

As you set them trials and tasks
That you both know they can't complete
While the ever rising energy bills
Put them on the street
Played in a game where they can't compete
Cracks in the ground underneath their feet
Trying to get themselves something to eat

Everybody's fighting
Union called a strike in
No trains to work
So you'll have to take the bike in
Suits of the cause
Make an exit plan
Even after calling on the Brexit scam
