I want to start a revolution against christmas shopping
Obviously nobody listesn to me BUT THE POGUES! well they could start a revolution with an Xmas song. I want loads of money, but hereby agree to give it all to the Disaster Emergency Committee. Really I just want to save the world for my kids.
A SHOPPING CAROL (Private profit, public loss).......to an electric 'Hark the herald' tune
"Hi! Trust me. You need my product
You need it now, so just sign here
Two for one, and one third off
Nothing to pay until next year
Joyful all ye shoppers rise
Credit limits it defies
TIME TO GO DOWN TO THE MALL
TO GATHER BARGAINS GREAT AND SMALL (Repeat)
Greed and envy they will follow
Social breakdown is our fate
Financial crisis, double dip
Before you know it, it's too late
Banksters syphon all our profits
Bail outs see they keep the good bits
TIME TO GO DOWN TO THE MALL
TIME GATHER BARGAINS GREAT AND SMALL (REPEAT)
They lend your savings at high interest
For infrastructure we don't need
When the loans get un-payable
They from us our income bleed
Private profits, public losses
Press control-ed by the bosses
TIME TO GO DOWN TO THE MALL
TIME GATHER BARGAINS GREAT AND SMALL (REPEAT)
They say we're in this all together
Propoganda made to please
Austerity will see us through
Just by Quantitative ease
Print more money, that's a gem!
Even that goes back to them
TIME TO GO DOWN TO THE MALL
TIME GATHER BARGAINS GREAT AND SMALL (REPEAT)"
