An ad popped up for "Gang of youths" so I had a wee listen. Good stuff. Great thought provoking lyrics. Downloaded their back catalogue of albums (4 off). Really enjoying it. Anyway, a wee taster:

Listening to this band..

 

And this song..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Energy and food bills soaring like nothing in history??
Guess what , this band sang about this way back in the day.
 
 
Check one of the verses below;
 
"Water is our business
Electricity is our business
Gas is our business
Lives are our business
Business is our business "
 
"Privatise the people's lives
Be part of the company (or fade!)
Appliance of science to privatise their lives "#
 
You just treat me like a commodity
You didn't know I couldn't even afford to feed my family
Is the hand that pulls the strings
 
Be the privileged few (to have to own to hold)
Power over the people yes yes
Power over people
 
Be the privileged few to have to own to hold
Money property assets before lives
Green gestures of a dying planet
 
An endless debate only too late
An appetite for gluttony
The only way is up the only way is up
But when you are up you have to try and stay there
 
So you stamp and cheat on people
Champagne breakfast (rewards for the killing)#
 
And a fat waist bulging
Indulging, with what you call good living
But most of all there is too much fat on your heart - pig
 
A lifestyle of cholesterol
Cross collateralized cholesterol
Saving what's left from profit margin
For what?
 
I'll tell you what for
For some conscience easing charity - Why?
Just to justify! Just to justify!
 
Look at this utopia
Society based on solid foundations
Educate our children - educate them well
 
To feather the nest and **** the rest
(Yes yes feather the nest and **** the rest)
The waste expands
(Your waist expands)
 
While others stand at the back of the queue
I mean you
 
Still the same old security
For your creature comforts
Exchanging the hours of your life
For the cash you've already spent
 
Eating rubbish so you can pay the rent
Table wine once a week if you're lucky
In comparison
 
Privatise the people's lives
Be part of the company (or fade!)
 
Appliance of science to privatise their lives
Water is our business
 
Electricity is our business
Gas is our business
Lives are our business
Business is our business
 
Your money - my time
Your stinking industrial bathwater - my wine
Imbalance induces hate
How will you bridge the gap
 
Between the endless buffet
And the empty plate I have
I feel hate I feel hate
I feel hate I feel hate
 
(Don't be afraid to show your hate, hate!)
You just treat me like a commodity
You didn't know I couldn't even afford to feed my family
