Lyrics

Beat the Bastards

Who the fuck are you?

Slaves to the system there's no way out

Slaves to the system do you have a shout

You've got to beat the bastards and beat 'em now

Sick of policies putting me down

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Just out of school dont have a clue

No income support for you

Can't get a job dont get a chance

Sick of politics leaving you out

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Money, money, power and streight

Teenage kids with not to spend

Hungry homeless who gives a shit

Sick of policies leaving me out

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

You've got to beat the bastards, beat the bastards

Beat the bastards, you've got to beat the bastards

Beat the bastards, you've got to beat the bastards

You've got to beat the bastards

You've got to beat the bastards, beat the bastards

Slaves to the system there's no way out

Slaves to the system do you have a shout

You've got to beat the bastards and beat 'em now

Sick of policies putting me down

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now

Beat the bastards, beat them now
