It's the same the whole world over Chorus: (harmony) 1. (unison) It's the same the UK over, 2. (unison) We must keep the banks a-floating, Chorus: (harmony) 3. (unison) It's the same the UK over, 4. (unison) We must protest long and loudly, Chorus: (harmony) |
Additional Verses Out of work and lost our houses Closed hospitals, the Dole is cut but its fair we're told and equal child benefit for the rich is cut Standing by the bank at midnight Counting out his bonus pile Stands the poor old hedge fund worker Trying to hide his evil smile He's made a pile on dodgy home loans Traded bad debts, flogged bad shares Bought a beemer , Mayfair mansions With cash conjured from thin air Boom and bust is good for business Boom times best without a doubt But in bust time he's still smiling knowing taxpayers bail him out Have the bankers now departed |
