Socialists (are back)

from Socialists (are back) by Ian Fourcandles

lyrics

They pretend to laugh because they are worried
With fistfuls of cash into bolt holes they scurry
Pouring scorn and derision
On the people's big decision
The media will use scare tactics
Say the earth will move off its axis
Middle England scared to death
By the rebirth of the "looney left"
Socialists are back socialists are back
The fat cats come under attack
Socialists are back socialists are back
The pale blue traitors got the sack

An alternative, at last a choice
From two heads with just one voice
Surely it is what we need
To deal with the bankers greed
To end the bullying and the lack of care
That had the vulnerable running scared
Out with those who could not care less
Who would be a turkey and vote for Christmas
Socialists are back socialists are back
The fat cats are under attack
Socialists are back socialists are back
The pale blue traitors got the sack

I could re-find my pride in this nation
That's a cause for celebration
Justice for all without prejudice
Where it has felt useless to resist
And the poorest families who could not cope
At last they can see a chink of hope
And a greater degree of equality
A safe haven for the homeless and the refugees
Socialists are back Socialists are back
And the fat cats comeunder attack
Socialists back socialists back
The pale blue traitors got the sack

A new hope for the nation
A real alternative
A new hope for the nation
A place that I'd be proud to live
Fairer , more compassionate and caring
Not just a playground for the rich
The "greed is good" bandwagon
Could wind up in a ditch
Socialists are back Socialists are back
The fat cats under attack
Socialists are back Socialists are back
Nick knack paddy whack
Socialists are back Socialists are back
Fat cats under attack
Socialists are back socialists are back
The pale blue traitors got the sack
