Monk - Free Society [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Look at this hypocrisy, try not to let it bother yae
With people constantly calling you, and not a hint of honesty
We're told we live free, nah, a cany see it
When a help make political choices is when a believe it
We voted against the tories, but they got in power anyway
That defeats the point of the entire fucking voting day
What's the point when we hold no significance
Corruption caused recession and the dodgy cunts admitted it
We continue listening, cos ignorance and bliss
And at the very best things can never get worse than it is
But we're simple, we try to live the easy life
We conform to norms, irregardless of if it's wrong or right
We need to stand and fight, we dinnae really have a choice
They won't ever listen, if we never show we have a voice
Long as we stay quiet, you best believe they'll keep us caged
They try to act all nice until the power shows an ugly face

[Hook]
We live in a free society, you can do this, you can do that
You can do a lot of things, but there's a lot that you can't
This is just an illusion, it's not actually for real
But folk choose to accept it, it seems like a fair deal
We live in a free society, you can do this, you can do that
You can do a lot of things, but only if you have cash
This is just an illusion, it's not actually for real
But folk choose to accept it, it seems like a fair deal

[Verse 2]
The door is locked, we're caught up in a padded cell
We all think we're free, but "reality" is in a magic spell
This population now exists inside a living hell
The scary thing is, is that most of us think it's class as well
We'll buy a lot of shit we don't need, to fuel greed
Of money-hungry fuckers riding their steeds, so take heed
All the money does is instigate the troubles we're having
We're walking on the same path and can't escape what just happened
And we just blindly follow, cos we're living better than others
And we avoid one another, because we're ignorant fuckers
And we just don't care, unless it happens to us
Then it's a shock and a fuss, like being smacked in the puss
But if it doesn't, then we'll carry on our merry way
And blank out all the troubles that'll happen in the passing days
We'll take a chance to all look moral with a sob story
But when in reality, being moral's just a fucking hobby

[Hook]
We live in a free society, you can do this, you can do that
You can do a lot of things, but there's a lot that you can't
This is just an illusion, it's not actually for real
But folk choose to accept it, it seems like a fair deal
We live in a free society, you can do this, you can do that
You can do a lot of things, but only if you have cash
This is just an illusion, it's not actually for real
But folk choose to accept it, it seems like a fair deal
