Screaming Blue Murder

I’m screaming Blue Murder
at the state of the nation
and how we blame our ills
on Muslims and immigration -
talking about people
as though they’re an infestation.
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
at the Banker’s greed
and the people on the street
who we can’t seem to feed -
the way that we trample
on sexuality and creed.
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
at the disheartening mess
of the education system,
transport and the NHS -
how we’re going to get out of it
is anybody’s guess.
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
at the neo-Fascist’s rise,
about how we’re indoctrinated
by Tory newspaper lies
and the way we look away
when an industry dies.
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
that the rich are getting more
while zero hour contracts
are hammering the poor
and the way we still find money
to support another war
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
at intolerance and hate,
the way you can’t criticise
a Persecution State
without being dragged into
anti semitic debate.
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
for all of the bluster and fuss
caused by unsupported facts
on the side of a bus -
how just one third of the country
somehow speak for all of us.
I’m screaming Blue Murder.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
at what this government’s done
to the weak and vulnerable,
to the poor man and his son -
and as they stand accused
with their smoking gun
I’m screaming Blue Murder

My heart is on the left
and my blood is red.
Austerity doesn’t work,
it has to be said.
Our ethics and our values
are morally dead.

I’m screaming Blue Murder
I’m screaming Blue Murder
I’m screaming Blue Murder
I’m screaming Blue Murder

I’m screaming Blue Murder
I’m screaming Blue Murder
I’m screaming Blue Murder
I’m screaming Blue Murder
