lyrics

Open hands and a list of demands
Our shouts bounce around stolen lands
Let's see them try to re-brand
While they're under our command
Begging for what we produce
The time has come to cut them loose
They don't need another excuse
To keep on tightening the noose

At the bottom of the pile
Lined up in single file
We wait for those on top
To send us the scraps they drop
Rotten fruit from a rotten tree
People before property

This is less than we deserve
From the people meant to serve
To be used and abused by government-funded abuse
The more that we converge
The sooner they'll lose their nerve
Ashes to ashes, we will emerge
No longer settling for being unheard

We live in an oligarchy
Masquerading as democracy
They keep us poor but it keeps us united
Single-minded, undivided

At the bottom of the pile
Lined up in single file
We wait for those on top
To send us the scraps they drop
Rotten fruit from a rotten tree
People before property
