They say democracy is simply very bad for business While deploring student protests in the middle of Hong Kong They insist that people have to work on zero contracts everywhere So profit margins grow and shares are very strong But one group that they never take to task And one question that they never seem to ask is: What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? Come on, well come on! They're buying football clubs today with absolute impunity And so much of the media to give themselves the power To destroy the very notion and the feeling of community While poisoning the public discourse hour by hour But although it never seems to make it into Hansard The question at some point must still be answered, oh What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? SongtexteWhat are we gonna do about the rich? Come on, well come on! What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? Come on, well come on! They’re avoiding paying taxes While the welfare state collapses Their extravagance and arrogance Their lack of checks to balance this Their lawyers and their attitude The scale of their ingratitude They only give to charity For maximum publicity What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? Come on, well come on! What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? What are we gonna do about the rich? Come on, well come on! Aus Songtexte Mania
