Government Surplus Lyrics - Harper Roy

The young men in my country 

They have no place 

Surplus to requirement 

They live in some kind of disgrace 

Stood in line to beg for money 

From governments with very funny 

Attitudes of "On your bike" sonny boy 

The young women in my country 

They have no choice 

Assembly-lining babies 

To "rejoice" 

Forced into the same old system 

Producing sons with Falklands wisdom 

And daughters full of apprehension 

Fuelled by attitudes of tension 

The young folk in my country 

Deserve the truth 

Uncluttered by deception 

In the flower of their youth 

What they have are gutter papers 

Biased news clandestine capers 

Run by shady operators
