I am all of your Greatest nightmares come true Everything wrong with the world And everything wrong with you I am the oil spill The drone strike on the hospital The ugly truth and the bitter pill It's not gonna be okay I am the tumour in your lung I am the tooth that bites the tongue I am the hip that needs replaced And the heating bills you have missed I am the hard right And dog whistle politics I am the deal in the backroom And the grin on the billionaire's face I am the envy Of your peers' successes I am your fears and insecurities I am the reason you're stuck in a rut I am your marriage dying Cups and saucers flying I am the legal fees, the documents And the pen to sign 'em I am the hush money The "dark web" and the laundered money I am your banks blood money And the offshore accounts I am your search history Big data and the algorithm I am the hidden hand The company man and the empty Heart within him I am the distracted Subdued consumerist masses I am a mountain of cheap plastic Crap made in a prison camp I am the ocean rising Mothers and their babies crying I am the hole in the dingy And the dark clouds brewing On the horizon
