Argy Bargy - What About Me? lyrics

Government spin tells you what to believe Hidden agendas designed to deceive Dancing to the tune of the Islington beat Myths perpetrated by the Guardian elite Silent conspiracy, eternal shame Another scapegoat to shoulder the blame Truth well hidden in a bureaucratic maze Out of the limelight and the public gaze I've gotta, you've gotta, we've gotta stand up and fight now I've gotta, you've gotta, we've gotta stop 'em now What About Me? Who defends my liberties What About Me? What About You? Who decides what you're gonna do? What About You? Self preservation's the main policy Power corrupts and breeds hypocrisy Manipulate the press to further the cause Encouraged by redundant archaic laws Elected to speak for the man in the street Empty promises safeguard your seat The honourable member is a total disgrace A matter of time before you fall from grace I've gotta, you've gotta, we've gotta stand up and fight now I've gotta, you've gotta, we've gotta stop 'em now
