Hey Mister! Lyrics

Because it's real you think it's a joke
Because it's on your doorstep you have to have a poke
At someone
It's only a cliche because it's all true
Time after time it happens through and through
To a new generation

You're just so smug in...

    Basically, it is about the Powers That (should not) Be and the tricks they use to control people. It is about people finding out how the system really work. It is about us having enough of the lies, and saying No!
    'You can't understand why we're losing face
    Perhaps it's the promises that you never kept
    "Never had it so good"
    Well do you want a bet?'
