lirik lagu billy bragg - ideology
when one voice rules the nation
just because they’re top of the pile
doesn’t mean their vision is the clearest
the voices of the people
are falling on deaf ears
our politicians all become careerists
they must declare their interests
but not their company cars
is there more to a seat in parliament
than sitting on your -rs-
and the best of all this bad bunch
is shouting to be heard
above the sound of ideologies clashing
outside the patient millions
who put them into power
expect a little more back for their taxes
like school books, beds in hospitals
and peace in our bl–dy time
all they get is old men grinding axes
who’ve built their private fortunes
on the things they can rely
the courts, the secret handshake
the stock exchange and the old school tie
for god and queen and country
all things they justify
above the sound of ideologies clashing
god bless the civil service
the nations saving grace
while we expect democracy
they’re laughing in our face
and although our cries get louder
the laughter gets louder still
above the sound of ideologies clashing
above the sound of ideologies,
above the sound of ideologies,
above the sound of ideologies clashing
