lirik lagu ren stedman - politics for kids
[verse 1]
we listen to the tv
and believe the things that we see
from the titles of the papers that we read
we blame the kids for what they’ve done
by fighting for the opposition
they did not win anyway
it’s only their own futures that they want to f~cking save
[chorus]
who do we think we are? we weren’t around
90’s kids weren’t dying off when maggie shut the mining town
how dare we care about the news
it’s not as if our generation’s filling someone else shoes
when you’re gone
you think that we’re wrong
kids can’t have the benefit
of talking about politics
they’ll only go and make these matters worse
so go and sit behind your screens
or occupy the libraries and learn
[verse 2]
the parents tell their kids
that they do not know anything
they haven’t lived half of their lives
not knowing how to pay for sh~t
but i am sure that their degrees
weren’t filled with loans and admin fees
they studied media for free and follow mediocrity
[chorus]
who do we think we are? we haven’t lived
long enough to know our minds or know our stance on politics
how dare we care what lies ahead
it’s only our own futures that we’re fighting to respect
so surely our view
is worth the argue
but you say discourse is a luxury
that comes with age and families
we’ll only go and screw the system more
or rally up the troops
and let the country know that it’s worth fighting for
for, it’s worth fighting for
for, it’s worth fighting for
[bridge]
but may means may
and though i don’t want her to stay
you cannot call a second vote
when things don’t go the way
you said you want them
and i despise them
these liars who call out each other
but no~one really fights them
[outro]
and i’m the same, where do i fit?
i call my songs a protest but i don’t understand politics
how knowing that the people’s vote was not meant to be final
though they had it in their heads we wouldn’t fight
to call out all the liars and scoundrels and the likes
of may and friends
their time will end
and we’re the ones who’ll pick the pieces up
when it this goes wrong in parliament
