The Wasteland - Chumbawamba Said the party to the ad-man We'll conjure up a gimmick The way to lead an ass Is with a carrot and a stick Dig down for minorities Promise them concessions Ride in on their backs And then teach them all a lesson Unemployment means depression
You're just victims of the recession
We can count on their support
If we can channel their emotions
Populate the wasteland Between leisure and the grave Work and pray and place your vote And some day you'll be saved
All these myths come tailor-made To suit the company director Myths that praise the dignity Of cheap, disposable labor Two different routes To an industrial heaven Work for and boss parliament And all will be forgiven It's the fear of being sacked
That lets the boss step up the pace
Because the minute you step out of line
There's someone took your place
Populate the wasteland Between leisure and the grave Work and pray and place your vote And some day you'll be saved
Said the MP to the media Can't we juggle this around Sprinkle sugar on the dog shit And we'll keep the figures down Never let the left hand See what's in the right No-one's any wiser And the problem's out of sight Take your democratic choice Take a scheme or starve Job clubs, restart, YTS, CPs, EAS Company profits doubled Wages chopped in half
Said the MP to the media Can't we juggle this around
Sprinkle sugar on the dog shit And we'll keep the figures down
Never let the left hand
See what's in the right
No-one's any wiser And the problem's out of sight Take your democratic choice
Take a scheme or starve Job clubs, restart, YTS, CPs, EAS Company profits doubled Wages chopped in half Populate the wasteland Between leisure the and grave
