With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song
I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
A change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war
I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again, no, no
I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half-alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do you?
Yeah
There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are effaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
I'll tip my hat to the new Constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again, no, no
Yeah
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
Austerity and defunding the government is 20 years since it began.
Unemployment skyrocketed. Most Brits leave to the EU for medical care. Probably bc many Brit health providers left for the EU. The standard of living in England has plummeted. Small businesses have fled to the EU as well. All those promised benefits of free markets & deregulation, the shrinkage of government. It eventually brought Brits downward to its lowest GDP - as measured against surrounding EU democracy's. In Britains entire modern history.

Cool song!
But the epitaph?
Be careful what you wish for. You just might get it.
The Brit billionaires fared well under austerity.
For the middle class & poor?
Living standards plummeted- "BIGLY"!
