As the grip of property developers tightens
Leaving luxury apartments in it's wake
Even the once so vibrant Grosvenor in Stockwell
Was forced to close all boarded up rotting away
The crushing cost of city life just keeps on rising
Forcing poorer renting folks to move away
Foreign investors disregarding people's lives when
Cuts stricken councils flogging every public place
Their crippling austerity
Is ripping up communities
Our neighbourhoods socially cleansed
Extortionate rising rents
Bailed out the banks with our money
The poorest in society
Neglected by this government
Who only serve the one percent
Their crippling austerity
Is ripping up communities
Our neighbourhoods socially cleansed
Extortionate rising rents
Bailed out the banks with our money
The poorest in society
Neglected by this government
Who only serve the one percent
As the gap between the classes ever widens
Increasing homelessness and child poverty rates
People queueing up at food banks nationwide now
While the richest get rewarded with tax breaks
The NHS and social care being neglected
In preparation for a private healthcare state
Believing politicians porky pies, you'll never know
What you are missing 'til it's gone and then it's too late
Their crippling austerity
Is ripping up communities
Our neighbourhoods socially cleansed
Extortionate rising rents
Bailed out the banks with our money
The poorest in society
Neglected by this government
Who only serve the one percent
Their crippling austerity
Is ripping up communities
Our neighbourhoods socially cleansed
Extortionate rising rents
Bailed out the banks with our money
The poorest in society
Neglected by this government
Who only serve the one percent
When you lose your job
Then you lose your home
When there's no one left
And you're on your own
You lose your job
You lose your home
There's no one left
You're on your own
When you lose your job
You lose your home
There's no one left
You're on your own
You lose your job
You lose your home
There's no one left
You're on your own
Their crippling austerity
Is ripping up communities
Our neighbourhoods socially cleansed
Extortionate rising rents
Bailed out the banks with our money
The poorest in society
Neglected by this government
Who only serve the one percent
Their crippling austerity
Is ripping up communities
Our neighbourhoods socially cleansed
Extortionate rising rents
Bailed out the banks with our money
