Descendants of revenue
A trillion pound that's overdue
We spend our life living in debt
And I don t think it's over yet
Youth condemned living martyrs
Paying for sins of our fathers
Another wage been delayed
The deficit can't be repaid

We're living in a state of emergency
Welcome to the land of austerity
Who's left to fix this situation
Talkin' about our generation

All this follow your dreams
All this live within your means
Starting to make me nervous
Cutting funds to our health service
Behind our backs privatise
Back it up by telling lies
We're deep under
Water gasping for air
Stand on our shoulders
And tell us it's fair
Tell us it's fair

We're living
In a state of emergency
Welcome to the land of austerity
Who's left to fix this situation
Talkin' about our generation

What about renewable energy
Back away don't frack with me
Sick of aiding pipeline wars
Shun the victims at our doors
Arms race to prove our might
Another breach of human rights
These weapons in our possession
All about nuclear aggression

Who's left to fix this situation
Our generation

Civilians die
While you line your pockets
To the excuse of nuclear rockets
Then you say it's just an error
Fucked up the region
And filled it with terror
It's not your problem
So upper class
Waving behind bullet proof glass
Tell us not to worry
They're being shot down
But then they brought
The bombs to my town

Then they brought
The bombs to my town
Fear, war, chaos
