First Against the Wall When the Revolution Comes
First against the wall when the revolution comes
That’s what I said to my banker
I’m tired of your fees and criminal rates
Your all give me and never a thank you.
Chorus 1.
The torches and pitchforks are coming for you
Don’t sit there and look so damn smug
The ninety nine percent have had just too much
Of your greedy fat mealy mouthed mug
First against the wall when the revolution comes
That’s what I said to my broker
Stop betting my savings in your game of roulette
It’s all fixed but the system is broken
Chorus 1.
The torches and pitchforks are coming for you
Don’t sit there and look so damn smug
The ninety nine percent have had just too much
Of your greedy fat mealy mouthed mug
First against the wall when the revolution comes
I said to my M.P. in the hall
You’ve lied and you’ve cheated and taken your bribes
It’s time that you take a big fall
First against the wall when the revolution comes
That’s what I said to my landlady
You get richer making your tenants poor
Is it me or are your tactics shady?
Chorus 2.
Yeah the torches and pitchforks are coming for you
It’s the end of complicit and complacent
You’ll have time to think back on all of your sins
When you’re lying face down on the pavement
