Letra

We work in your factories, your kitchens, and fields

We work on the wards and the farms

For all of the lives that it cost to get here

Do you really think we mean you harm?

You should embrace us, you should be glad

Maybe we're here just in time

We could be the children you never had

If your numbers slowly decline

Facts don't have feelings, but families do

Behind the headlines are lives

Fathers and mothers

Sisters and brothers

Husbands, partners and wives

What have I done to me? Who am I now?

Where is the person I knew?

One door led to darkness, the other to light

Where am I now that I'm through?

With all of your knowledge and all of your skill

With all of the science you learned

I was just troubled, I wasn't ill

And my life wasn't yours to affirm

Facts don't have feelings, but families do

Behind these headlines are lives

Fathers and mothers

Sisters and brothers

Husbands, partners and wives

You trusted us with your parcels and gifts

We were always the heart of this town

Long hours of labouring, working in shifts

But the ghost in the code brought us down

With all of your power and all of your skill

With the might of the law to deploy

We were rebranded as felons until

There was nobody of us left

To destroy

Facts don't have feelings, but families do

Behind the headlines are lives

Fathers and mothers

Sisters and brothers

Husbands, partners, and wives

Burn all the banners, the headlines, the memes

Cast off the entrails and runes

'Cause we pay the piper, we call the shots

Why can't they dance to our tunes?

We pay the piper, we call the shots

Let's make them dance to our tunes
