lyrics

By’s I’m friggin’ pissed here today
Why should I listen to what he’s got to say?
We all know that it’s gonna be lies
Spewed from a mouth full of McDonald’s fries

The two of them got their hands all over
The keys to the island of Newfoundland
And they’re gonna run this place into the ground
Deeper than a drill in the oil sands
Fuck the Premier and all his taxes
Fuck the government as a whole
Fuck everything that he ever said
The entire populace has been cajoled

Mister Premier you’re dead to me
And to everybody else you’ve screwed the pooch
I’m so depressed with all the taxes
That all I want to do all day is drink hooch

Get with the fucking program
You lied straight to our faces
Get with the fucking program
You’re not in anyone’s good graces
Get with the fucking program
Revolution is all that’s left
Get with the fucking program
Of a heart you’re all bereft

I want to buy a book but the price is too high
I want to buy gas but the price is too high
Can’t buy a Kit-Kat cause the price is too high
Can’t even get high because the price is too high

I’m only working for minimum wage
Barely scraping buy at the rate that I’m paid
And everything that our leaders do
Just feels like a slap in my impoverished face

Screaming about how mad this makes me
Is all that I’ve got left in life
If I didn’t have punk rock to save my soul
Ten years ago is when I’d have died

Hardcore is all that keeps me going
The righteous anger directed up the hill
Towards the man and woman who fucked us all
You both make me want to kill

Get with the fucking program
You lied straight to our faces
Get with the fucking program
You’re not in anyone’s good graces
Get with the fucking program
Revolution is all that’s left
Get with the fucking program
Of a heart you’re both bereft
