Keep Your Head Down

You can sit, you can type, you can ingest all the hype.

You can get all you want if you work hard and keep your head down.

Pragmatic policy is the stuff of fantasy,

best not to question.

Keep your head down.

And with all these insane bills watch your country slip away.

We are moving to a police state to celebrate Harper day.

But if you work hard and don't question, you just might avoid the fray.

So just keep your head down.

Oh these greedy men will put us all away.

Control your thoughts and feelings so you'll do what they say.

How could this happen here? Everyone is so polite. Everyone has expectations.

Chastised on the evening news. "This is not how we behave."

Oh but a fenced off downtown is totally normal.

Now they're marching in formation for another photo op.

We spent seventy grand on a fake lake to show the world what we got.

And you can smell the corruption when your nose picks up the waft.

And you can keep your head down.

Hold your ground. Don't be afraid.

And while greedy men are getting paid,

with a lovely crunching sound,

Underneath a policeman's boot…

You have kept your head down
