Feed The Rich
Unveiling the Illusion: Feed The Rich by Scott Colquhoun
Lyrics
How was anybody fooled by
Expressing disbelief or questioning how anyone could be deceived by someone.
That bumbling fool act
Referring to a deceptive or incompetent behavior that may have fooled people.
A man who's own wives couldn't trust
Highlighting a lack of trust even from the person's own spouses.
And that's a fact
Stating that the lack of trust is a verified reality.
The rich get richer, lining each other's pockets
Criticizing the wealthy for enriching themselves at the expense of others.
While we're out chasing coppers
Contrasting the struggles of ordinary people with the privileged class.
Being told the poorest are
Questioning a narrative that blames the poor for societal problems.
The reason we're all paupers
Expressing frustration with the idea that the poor are responsible for everyone's poverty.
I need two jobs now just to make ends meet now
Describing the need for multiple jobs to meet basic needs.
No time for heroes when I should be a cash cow
Regretting the lack of time for pursuing noble causes due to financial pressures.
I can't be a dreamer in a world that's material
Expressing difficulty in being an idealist in a materialistic world.
Being an idealist makes me immaterial
Feeling marginalized or overlooked for holding idealistic beliefs.
It's your way, this way, no way, not my way
Rejecting conformity and asserting personal independence.
It's your voice, your choice, totalitarian
Criticizing a system that limits individual choices and promotes a totalitarian approach.
I've been walking on tiptoes on egg shells
Describing a cautious and tense approach to avoid negative consequences.
Trying to survive this Conservative cartel
Expressing the struggle of surviving under a conservative political system.
Things ain't going to get better
Pessimistically stating that things will not improve.
The UK's fucked forever
Expressing a bleak view of the future of the UK.
As long as we keep shoveling
Attributing the negative situation to blindly following policies favoring the rich.
This shit from feed the rich governing
No specific meaning provided in the lyrics.
My vote now is for the lesser of some evils
Opting for a choice perceived as the lesser of various undesirable options.
A change ain't gonna come if we keep taking these pills
Expressing skepticism about positive change when relying on temporary solutions.
I wanna tick a box that says none of the above
Desiring an option to reject all available choices in a political context.
Money hungry vultures won't produce a red lady dove
Highlighting the unlikelihood of positive change from money-driven political figures.
It's your way, this way, no way, not my way
Reiterating the rejection of conformity and asserting personal independence.
It's your voice, your choice, totalitarian
Reiterating criticism of a system limiting individual choices and promoting totalitarianism.
I've been walking on tiptoes on egg shells
Reiterating a cautious and tense approach to avoid negative consequences.
Trying to survive this Conservative cartel
Reiterating the struggle of surviving under a conservative political system.
Things ain't going to get better
Pessimistically stating that things will not improve.
The UK's fucked forever
Expressing a bleak view of the future of the UK.
As long as we keep shoveling
Attributing the negative situation to blindly following policies favoring the rich.
This shit from feed the rich governing
