Strangely Shaped by Fathers - This Is What Democracy Looks Like (Bass and Vox Version) Lyrics

Streets filled with conspiracy
The Masses Screaming To Be Free
Demonstrators everywhere
The rich are having quite a scare
Fighting against corruption and a murderous regime
The masses are uprising and are taking to the streets
Protest's a right supposedly in this democracy
So why on earth is everywhere surrounded by police?

Banners and singing against tear-gas, clubs and guns
Who is really protecting the peace?

This is what democracy looks like
Is this what democracy looks like?

Every day people are screwed
By systemic structural abuse
Corporate ruling capitalists
Screw us over for their profit
But now we're getting restless and we're beating on our drums
A battle cry for freedom in our mass demonstrations
Our anger turned to magic and some more direct action
A democratic right to voice our dissatisfaction

We're growing stronger not going away
In fear they bring in their armies!

This is what democracy looks like
Is this what democracy looks like?
Cuz to me it just looks like Marshall law!

Undercover cops sparking up violence
Military nerve gasses to stop our dissent
Arrested for political opinions
As rubber bullets fly at our painted faces
The class war illustrated
As the cops protect the ruling class
This is your democracy
Aren't you so proud of what you let pass?

Freedom of speech beaten away
We speak our minds, their batons raise!
The confrontation evidence they've something to protect
Throw all you can at us cuz we will never rest!

We will fight until we win
Your mind manipulation is wearing thin

This ain't what democracy looks like!
This ain't what democracy looks like!

Because it's not a democracy when you're beaten up for speaking out
This ain't a democracy-oh no!
