Work Harder Fucker

Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Feudalism never died
We’re still ruled by lords
Peasants and serfs
Needing food and board
With prices rising
Faster than wages
We’re still toiling the land
And living in cages
Pressured into jobs
And taking the offers
Accepting paltry pay
Just to fill the coffers
Casual work placements
With sod-all rights
Who needs to sleep
When you can also work nights
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Vampire job agencies
Taking a bite
From public sector companies
The maths ain’t right
The government
Let off their corporate chums
You pay the tax
But no one checks their sums
They sip from fine glassware
We slurp from the trough
Before you can blink
They’ll have you signed off
And place you on
A workfare programme
To subsidise Tesco
It’s a fucking scam!
Zero hour contracts
And minimum wage
For minimum living
Don’t you feel the rage?
I wanna be the best I can be
I’m gonna make the boss so happy
I’m gonna get Employee of the Week
I wanna make the sales figures peak!
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Nooses are for
the nearly dead
Wear a suit and tie
Choke the dreams in your head
While someone gets to
Benefit from your pain
Account offshore
And a villa in Spain
Give up your life
So they can have theirs
They’d pay you less if they could
They have no cares
And if you don’t comply
There’s another way
Incarcerate you
For a nice prison stay
Making goods for the shops
While you do your time
It begs the question
Who commits the real crime?!
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Don't get ideas
Above your station
Work harder fucker
Work harder fucker
Work harder fucker
Work harder fucker
Keep your head down
And don’t look up!
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Work harder fucker
This is your subjugation
Don't get ideas
Above your station
Work harder fucker
Work harder fucker
Work harder fucker
Work harder fucker

Save the World

They say that children are the future…
We say there is no future for your children…
If you only care about little Timmy
Why do you think it’s gonna get better?
The system is fucked and you are complicit
We need to take steps to reduce the numbers!
Your kid’s not special
Your kid’s not cute
They’re a drain on the planet
And that you can’t refute
Fuck pro-lifers
We’re not pro-choice
We’re pro-abortion
That’s our voice!
The cities are full
The future is bleak
There’ll be nothing left
We’re past the peak
We’re all oxygen thieves
And carbon emitters
Another one born
And it just gets shitter
It’s not our fault
We have to blame the roots
The media moguls
And corporate suits
We’re all part of the problem
Need to be the solution
Populations out of hand
We need absolution!
What are you saving all them pennies for?
What are you saving for – humans will be no more!
Too much waste
And not enough resources
Your recycling efforts
Are not stemming our remorses
With mass production
There simply are no pros
Your eco-nappies take
40 years to decompose
Riding a bike
That is an improvement
But ethical consumers
Are a useless movement
The future is looking
Pretty fucking dire
We need to do something
Before we expire
Yes, we all want to have a nice house
Yes, we all want a lovely catchment area
Yes, we all want to go organic
Yes, we all want to meet up for coffee!
Yes, we all want a smooth school run
Yes, we all want to pay off the mortgage
Yes, we all want a nice world to live in
But your kids take up space, so make the decision!
Save the world
Kill your children
Save the world
Kill your children
Save the world
Kill your children
Save the world now
Save the world now
They’re not special
And you’re not helping
Why not put them out of their misery?
They’re not special
And you’re not helping
And then you might save the planet!

Empires All Crumble
04:28
|

Colossal empires have existed throughout history
Who conquered vast swathes of land
Replacing ideologies by the sword.
Dominating nations and eradicating civilisations
But there is one thing
One very, very important detail
That all of these empires shared…
…They all perished in the end!
What goes up
Must come down
Empires all crumble
These towers aren’t ivory
As I walk through the City
But they scrape the sky over me
Their hosts know no pity
I don’t claim to understand the economy
But I think I understand vast inequality
I feel powerless,
But power is an illusion, a construct
Law made flesh, Robots to instruct
It could all be brought down
With a glitch in the design
A spanner in the works
Not even they can see the signs
What goes up –
Must come down
Empires all crumble!
Empires all crumble!
It’s us versus them
Challenge their worldview
The 1% inner circle
Empire of the few
They say Rome
Wasn’t built in a day
That empire fell
Without their say
Powerful structures
Have foundations tremble
Fall apart at the seams
No more will they resemble
It’s mere mortals
Who make this their cause
Exposed to death and fears
Whilst they manifest laws
What goes up –
Must come down
Empires all crumble!
Empires all crumble!
Empires are never built to last
Corruption and greed resign them to the past
We can live to see capitalism fail
We can live to see a new model prevail
One not built on competition
Secret police and extradition
Wars for oil and media spin
It’s our world still, it’s all to win
What goes up
Must come down
What goes up
Must come down
Empires, empires, empires all crumble
Empires, empires, empires all crumble
What goes up –
Must come down
Empires all crumble!
Empires all crumble!

Designed to Fail

Generate long-term sales
by reducing time between purchases!
They told us we could be
Whatever we can dream
Buy your way to happiness
And join the team
But the architects
Worked in perfect flaws
The blueprint was drawn
Every effect has a cause
Society fashioned
With meticulous precision
To ensure our ongoing
Subdued positions
Designed to fail
Just like you
Society’s corrupt
And built to fail
From our own futures
To products for sale
We’ll end up on the
Landfills of tomorrow
And want more goods
To buy, beg or borrow
Playing by the rules
Like rats in a maze
To help corporations
Money must they raise
It doesn’t matter
If they make it shit
We’re still craven enough
To fucking buy it
…we still fucking buy it…
You, are, not, any use to me now
You, are, not, any use to me now
Designed to fail
Just like you
Spend disposable cash
On disposable crap
While we pillage the planet
For resources to sap
Suicidal workers
Slave away,
Keep the line rolling
Never waste a day
We need
New! Shiny! Flashy! Things
For us westerners
The empty joy it brings
And when they break
We’ll just ship it back
To the Global South
They can take the flack
Out of sight and out of mind
Not our problem anymore
Mine those metals, melt that plastic
Gimme more, gimme more, gimme more!
You are not any use to me now
You are not any use to me now

Tory – Tory – scum scum scum
We’ve got to rid the country of…
Even if it’s yer Dad or yer Mum
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
Even if it’s yer pal or yer chum
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
If politics leaves you numb
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
Murder them all to the beat of the drum
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
Tory genocide is the perfect outcome
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
We pay by the head, raise your income
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
Kids all be doing it, you will succumb
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
It’s the solution – we’ll overcome
Kill tory scum, kill tory scum
Tory – Tory – scum scum scum
We’ve got to rid the country of…
Kill tory scum before they kill you
Kill tory scum before they kill you
Kill tory scum before they kill you
Kill tory scum before they kill you!

Killdren Royal Tunbridge Wells, UK
Killdren are a two-bit rave-punk band with a smelly attitude who hail from Tunbridge
Wells.
Sitting uneasily between straight-up nihilism and fresh-faced naivety,
Killdren pen politically charged slapstick anthems.
They form the ideal soundtrack to the worst generation in history.
