Lyrics

Personal Gain

Clinging onto wealth
The cheats that make the rules
Sell the national health
Takes us for fools
Privatise their youth
With superior schools
Guaranteed position
Make me proud son

Pursue personal gain, yeah
Forsake the rest, the rest are last
Please get out my brain, yeah
Our survey says you're on the left

The lens the looking glass
The morals down the shaft
Twisting social norms
It's a mundane story
The fake news has more draw
The lure of an eyesore
Means and ends divide
Chaos lost lives

Pursue personal gain, yeah
Forsake the rest, the rest are last
Please get out my brain, yeah
Our survey says you're on the left
Nah nah nah nah, nah
Nah nah, nah nah, nah nah, nah nah
Nah nah nah nah, nah
Nah nah, nah nah, nah nah, nah nah

Pursue personal gain, yeah
Forsake the rest, the rest are last
Please get out my brain, yeah
Our survey says you're on the left
Nah nah nah nah, nah
Nah nah, nah nah, nah nah, nah nah
Nah nah nah nah, nah
Nah nah, nah nah, nah nah, nah nah
