Lyrics

What came first the carrot or the stick?
Are they going to sack you or give you a kick?
They take with one hand and then the other
They'd do the same if they had another
In their ivory tower they frown
Staring at you sprawled on the ground, it's true

Load you up until you quake
Not all of them care if you break
But say the right things and you'll go far
A farting chair and a company car
I didn't get where I'm not today
By telling the truth when having my say, it's true

They make it hard for us to flag
If we start to sag, it's true

The emperors show us their new clothes
Then cut off our hands despite their nose
As the greed-holders count all their beans
While we're left to wonder what it all means, it's true
