Public losses
Turned into private gains
The rhetoric has changed
But the game’s the same
Lining pockets
And growing fat
When the bubble bursts
Who’ll pay the price for that?
The logic of this system, it is blinding us too
Money is the drug and they got us hooked
Do what we’re told in order to get paid
Never asking questions till it’s far too late
Haven’t learned
Not in the slightest bit
They bleed us dry
And we accept it
Smokescreens still work
Unable to break through
And expose to the world
How they lie to you
The clutches of this system they are shackling us to
Money is the drug and they got us hooked
Craving it so we can’t see straight
They fucked us over and they got away
They fucked us
They fucked us over
And they got away
