lirik lagu death to plutocracy – bread and roses
young william gates at age 38
says life isn’t fun anymore
as he smokes by the window in silence
the ghostwriter stares at the door
the engineer sighs as the minutes go by
and the emptiness fills up the tape
the transcription service is waiting outside for a sign that he’s made his escape
the young secretary will snap to attention
as the billionaire shifts in his seat
while the older assistants shoot glances
and the prеss agent gets to his feet
the grеat man will reach with one trembling hand
with a drink that never leaves his side
as the glass slips through his fingers
he’ll look to the camera as if to confide and say
“i’m just a man, and there’s been a mistake, no one deserves all the things i’ve been given, and no one could earn all the things i have taken”
the rock and roll star stares down at his guitar
and for once in his life words won’t come
one million fans slip into silence
behind the best of one lonely kick drum
the next songs all done before it’s even begun
and the applause was barely even there
as the manager sits in the back stage control room
convincing himself he should care
the rhythm guitars climbing into his car
before anyone notices he’s gone
and the ladies back stage are feeling their age as they put their torn fishnets back on
now there’s one lonely figure standing under the spotlight as the crowd slowly trickles away
he’s raises his hand in a familiar gesture
steps up to the microphone to say
“i’m just a man, and there’s been a mistake, no one deserves all the things i’ve been given, and no one could earn all the things i have taken cause i’m just a man”
the president stares as the camera records
the blank look in his eyes
as two men in a bunker touch keys in their pockets
he opens his mouth
the world holds its breath he says
“i’m just a man, and there’s been a mistake, no one deserves all the things i’ve been given, and no one could earn all the things i have taken i’m just a man, and there’s been a mistake, no one deserves all the things i’ve been given, and no one could earn all the things i have taken cause i’m just a man”
