about

For centuries the ruling class has tried to distinguish between poor people, those deemed useful and those deemed useless, without thinking about the conditions that create poverty. One such attempt came from Peter Lilley in this www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOx8q... vile speech from nearly 30 years ago. Not much changed since then!

lyrics

I’ve got a little list of benefit cheats I’ll be rooting out
They will never be missed they will never be missed
Young ladies who get pregnant to jump the housing queue
Dads who won’t support the kids of ladies they have kissed

We subsidise the scroungers, the fake asylum seekers
Welfare queens come get your cheques and spend it on drug dealers
You travellers and gypsies, scroungers scum and thieves
Get on your bike, you don’t need food get on your knees and plead

The recession threw you out of work? Don’t be daft young man
It was your choice to earn no coin, your choice yourself to damn
You cannot feed your kids its clear you had too many
You feckless ruinous piece of shit they don’t deserve a penny

The rent made you bankrupt? Its clear you have no brain
You should have invested, then you’d make a gain
Look at me, I’m clever, I was born to take this place
With my hard work trust fund, my assets there is no trace

Tax is not for me, you plebs, I avoid the heat
That people like you will get, you dirty benefit cheat
Universal credit its waiting for you
We’re waiting with a sanction to save a bob or two

Your lack of means your lack of funds this is your choice
You have no right to have a say no right to have a voice
One question is have you tried, do you deserve
If you fail you’re a scrounger with a lot of nerve

Living in a world if shit is a choice of lifestyle
If you do not earn our money then you earn our bile
Get up get out you strive though it kills
Circumstances are you’re lazy! And only out for thrills

What do you mean your factory closed? It went abroad?
What you mean the robots came? Technology we applaud!
What do you mean your kids fell sick you couldn’t get to work?
That is your choice, man, you clearly chose to shirk!

And now you have no use and no role left to play
Human garbage, sickening spongers and feckless we portray
We would rather you die than show us our system fails
There is no alternative, money must prevail

You’ve been here for centuries, the plebs and the mob
The landless soldiers, paupers, in poverty you sob
Single mothers, workless fathers, you will never see your children have more
Because you are the undeserving poor
