"Enough Is Enough!" lyrics

Primal Scream & Dexys Lyrics

"Enough Is Enough!"

We are for welfare, not for warfare
To build, and not destroy

We believe in equal rights, and justice for all
The inequalities of life are many:

The homeless, the hungry, the downtrodden, the confused

There's an excess of money, in the house economy
It never trickles down to the workers

Government policy is inequality
Socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor

The struggle continues, it's never too late
To raise up our consciousness, see through the hate

The way that they run is by causing divide
Culture wars, Brexit, and media liars

It's all a big con to keep us confused
The bottom line is: we're all being used

While we fight each other, we're going nowhere
We need to take on the fuckers who show us no care

If we all stand united and see through their lies
They wouldn't last five minutes, with our strength and our size

We are real people, and we won't take this shit
The more we accept, the less they will get

They say there's no money while rewarding themselves
And the people go hungry and the food banks lines swell

Wages so poor that many can't eat
Or they sit in their homes, without enough heat

There's an old saying my father taught me:
'Better die on your feet than live on your knees'

Let's throw off the shackles and support RMT
They're leading the way for the rest of us to lay

The wages are there, they're just going to the rich
All UK workers can be part of this

The RMT is leading the way
They aren't asking much, only fair pay

We really hope others will take up their lead
People who work should never be in need

We really hope others will take up their lead
People who work should never be in need

Because if you're not bargaining, you're begging
Enough is enough

Enough is, enough is, enough is enough
Enough is, enough is, enough is enough

All we are saying with our flesh and our blood
Enough is enough
Enough is enough

Enough is, enough is, enough is enough
Enough is, enough is, enough is enough

All we are saying with our flesh and our blood
Enough is enough
Enough is enough

Enough is, enough is, enough is enough
Enough is, enough is, enough is enough

All we are saying with our flesh and our blood
Enough is enough
Enough is enough

(One last time, come on!)

Enough is, enough is, enough is enough
Enough is, enough is, enough is enough

All we are saying with our flesh and our blood
Enough is enough
Enough is enough

(Cheering, applause)
(Fuck the Tories!)
