lyrics

There’s a storm coming, Mr. Wayne
People like you are who we blame
For disparity in this modern world
To what has corrupted this little girl

You sit there in your ivory tower
With your servants, so self-centered
Gorging deep on labours of the meek
And those who survive work 60-hour weeks

When will the scraps fall from your table?
And when will you wake from this ancient fable?
This world is, this world is ours.

There’s a storm coming, Mr. Wayne
Let’s not dance another charade
The wind’s of change coming swift off the coast
Dismantle the system, sever the host

I do what I need and I need to survive
I hunt in the darkness, and prey on the night
You’ve never feared these streets that I know
Best get your coat, it’s about to get cold

How can you live so large and leave so little for the rest of us?
Your excuses feel so old and brittle.
This world is, this world is ours.
