scratchings - hessian renegade lyrics

[intro]
we’re just a human resource stirring the pot
selling off our potential never sparing a thought
soiling green future
we’re welcoming the running man
thinking we’re untouchable
but everybody’s hurting man

[verse 1]
walking on a tight rope avoiding our downfall
tribal animals always listening for the crowd call
bigger picture (huh)
i’m never backing down, i don’t wish i was with ya
living in the terror dome
breathing in the pheromones
hiding all the rust
padded up with dust and styrofoam
twenty f-cking something and you can’t afford a home
living with your parents never felt so alone
having nae prospects
hopes or your dreams
developing a drinking problem at sixteen
we’re bred to be better but we’ve only turned out worse
but generation x still screwed up first
the sins of our fathers in this tribal life
in this pyramid scheme built on pillars of strife
we kid ourselves on that we’re on the same and brothers
but listen to our mothers
some of these creatures are more equal than others

[verse 2]
so we sit and argue politics and comment online
with our virtual soap boxes just waiting in-line
but we’ll still wine and dine in an effort to find
conformity in a democracy that’s hardly sublime
falsifying productivity in everyday life
with this media mask fast diverting our sights
it’s the last that had us all sitting spitting in spite
at each other over others
appearances and att-tudes
banks are paying bonuses
and politicians beg for any sign of some gratt-tude
turning downs a wage rise isn’t an accomplishment
think a f-cking nurse even cares for that acknowledgement?
(i was ostracised)
paid less than these swine for saving people lives
parliamentary knives driven deep in their sides
but we’ll still play it nice in our pen with the others…
tuck ourselves deep smothered under the covers…
’cause some of these creatures are more equal than others

[outro]
equality…
is not what it’s meant to be…
disguised by a veil it seems…
judged by a colour or a shunned s-xuality…
religion or a gender or just for your family…
equality…
is not what its meant to be…
