Clapped - words by European Bob:
We all clapped
Cause we all clapped
And let blame for the situation run off the backs
Of the elected officials who weren't quick to react
On a global pandemic that was well on its way
They did all they can, that's what they'll say
For our medical heroes
Paid for and run by professional zeroes
But let hero be the word we use to describe
Then it seems more just that we're letting them die
Quick to give praise
Hesitant to give a raise
They like to say we're all in this together
But when the north needed aid the government said never
Till it affected those in the South
Cover your face, shut your mouth
From our yachts and stately homes
You can sit and watch us lie while you're all alone
I'm sick of celebrity zoom song covers
Pretend everything's okay, we're all sisters and brothers
Lock the country down again but leave it too late
And give your PPE contracts to all your rich mates
On the day before Christmas, the PM said to me
You better stay home or face a hefty fucking fee
Funny thing about fines is that for the rich they don't exist
A two-hundred-pound charge for them is not a risk
So they can do what they want with no fear of a fine
While the poor stay indoors and wait for a sign
From a statement on TV telling us where can and can't be
And which loved ones we're allowed or not to see
But mix with your colleagues at your place of business
So we can keep earning money off the back of this illness
37 billion pounds spent to track us and trace us
But the deaths drive up as they let it erase us
So we all clapped
Cause we all clapped
Because what it represents
Was a costly human expense.
