lyrics

You need people like me
In this digital age
I can do humility
Or righteous rage
This link will take you
To my Facebook page
Where everything’s for sale
Everything’s for sale

Laws are stretched
And rules are bent
To benefit the people
I represent
Odd times turn up
In parliament
Where everything’s for sale
Everything’s for sale

Pass the kickback
Pass the buck
Me, I can’t believe my luck
This ascending scale is stuck
On me, me, me, me, me, me, me

So if you care
If you believe
That to give
Is to receive
You are tragically naïve
Everything’s for sale
Everything’s for sale
