Haves and Have Nots
Look again
Towards the breadbasket of civilization
They hold up a mirror
To our own looming confrontation
Upon the beautiful shores of Greece
Comes a class warfare that has divided the cultural peace
Forced down his throat the Noble Greek will not swallow
The European Austerity Plan he's expected to follow
Damning their working class culture and not approved by Apollo!
Quite fitting this eternal struggle has returned to this original arena
When the working class people are exploited
They always find it anathema
Pray
May their Truth be guided by the Sword of Hercules
And the Wisdom of Athena
