Who They Kidding

Who they kidding?

They ain't kidding me.

Seeing things that I gotta see!

Veterans begging on the streets

Elderly people so lonely.

Kids with no homes

People pushed so far they break.

All for the make!

Make, make, make, make, make

It's all about money, it's all about greed.

Apart from when it's measured performance

Non stop target setting - working us 'till we bleed.

World's a strange place?

People are just weird.

Smile at your face

Lies in their eyes!

Things never change to better this age.

Promise everything, deliver????

Who can you trust?

.............................

Who they kidding?

They ain't kidding me.
