The Chinaskis - Such a Shame

Has the time really come to be paralysed?
To avert our eyes in antipathy?
While your pockets grow fat
From the battle ground
From the hatred pound
From the scum like me?
And it's such a shame
And it's such a shame
It's such a shame
That we all bow our heads while you falter
With our heroes defanged by your stereotypes
All smaller than life
Are there none who will fight?
Are we all so enthralled by the cathode glare?
Hate the villains there
Fuck the ones outside?
And it's such a shame
And it's such a shame
It's such a shame
That we all bow our heads while you falter
Well last night I walked past your rainy street
Past the armed police
And the gilded halls
While the public pay in silence to plutocrats
Like doped-up lab rats
Who will heed the call?
And it's such a shame
And it's such a shame
It's such a shame
That we all bow our heads while you falter
And it's such a shame
And it's such a shame
It's such a shame
That we all bow our heads while you falter
We all turn our heads while you falter
We all turn our heads
