The DHSS - Money God
Tamworth Arts Centre - December 18th 1988

Money God : The DHSS
Unemployed and destitute demoralised and hurt,
Pathetic, sad and ignorant, overdrawn and dirt.
Patronised and crucified, shit upon and weak.
Denigrated, relegated, embarrassingly meek.

Intellect is limited but technically adept.
Social immobility, financially inept.
Credit card conspiracy, fantastic interest rate.
Conservative encouragement, self-employment state.

The Money God, the Money God, the Money God - let's all worship.
The Money God, the Money God, the Money God - we want money.

Enterprising businessman, commercially on top.
Overworked, overtaxed, overtime non-stop.
Income tax and Filofax, business lunch with friends.
Stamp upon the working class, reach your selfish ends.

Bigoted and critical, qualities of wealth.
Satisfied and purified, well on private health.
Compact disc and stereo, possessions are a must.
Suicide and homicide, businesses go bust.

Chorus.

Unemployed and destitute demoralised and hurt,
Pathetic, sad and ignorant, overdrawn and dirt.
Patronised and crucified, shit upon and weak.
Denigrated, relegated, embarrassingly meek.
