2016 (Explicit) - Beans On Toast

Written by:Jay McAllister

Count yourself

Lucky for the minutes

The hours and the days

They were singing in the street

When David Bowie passed away

And he left behind a message

Without a shadow of a doubt

Stand up for what is right

Stand up for it now

And I'm slap bang in the middle

Of this life that I lead

And it feels as though society's

Collapsing at the seams

And everybody knows it's happening

Still nobody does anything

Welcome to 2016

With it's referendums and it's algorithms

A sudden rise of fascism

That's fueled by a religious war

The return of the football hooligan

You can say goodbye to Muhammad Ali

Say hello to 2016

Well you can say goodbye to Prince as well

Say hello to laws that still

Prevent gay people getting married

The dinosaurs are not evolving

The matters go from bad to worse

You can see it in the eyes of the homelessness

But that don't bother Nigel Farage

Boris Johnson or Michael Gove

Self righteous

Self serving twats

Telling us we want our country back

Until we're voted out by a majority

Who are petrified of refugees

But not economic slavery

Well I whitewashed my Facebook feed

So everyone believes what I believe

But believing this stuff don't sell papers

Hey look son here's another terrorist

Here's some more terror

Here's some more terrorism

Here's another dead kid without any reason

Some more propaganda

Public relations

Another bloody war followed by a pay cut

Here's a new prime minister

Here's a new king

Welcome to 2016

Well I remember when Terry Wogan died

They were flogging off the public land

So that they could frack underneath

To please a few conservatives

Ignoring scientific fact

That it's bad for the planet

And it's bad for your health

The media government corporation

Sold your soul to their old school friends

With A levels in the Panama papers

And GCSEs in arms manufacturers

The transatlantic TTIP deal

Is pretty much the end of us all

And the only ones who benefit

Are the very people that invented it

And the lesser of two evils wins

Time and time and time again

Welcome to 2016

Born to lose and live to win

The words of Lemmy Kilmister

Who lived his life without regret

But he was sad of the state

Of the world that he left

And Guy Clark didn't sing for the money

And Howard Marks did what he wanted

Victoria she made us laugh

And DJ Derek made us dance

And now we're holding back the tears

More than any other year

And they're playing a Merle Haggard song

When Donald Duck steps to the throne

And tells us to hate Mickey Mouse

If we want to live in Walt Disney's house

An angry white man on a microphone

With his finger on the button and a nuclear code

But here we are right now today

Just hoping that it will go away

But we know that's not how the world works

And if we want to sort it out

We've gotta do it ourselves

Try to picture a planet

That you want to live on

If you want to build a future

You gotta start from the bottom

Try to think of something

You can do to help

It doesn't matter how small

Everything's gonna count

Right now we need you to be the best

That you can be

And try to make a difference in 2017
