Why can't you see that we're all so fucked?
Open your eyes, the future's getting bleaker by the fucking day
We're screwing up this world more and more, day by day
While we spend our lives wasting away
Nose to the grindstone, break your fucking back
To earn mere pennies in a world that's drenched in gold
Leave for work, work yourself to death, smash a beer
Then hit the fucking sack and do it all again
And you know what we say?
Hard fucking yakka mate
And you know what we say?
Hard fucking yakka mate
Fuck
It's all our fault, we let them walk all over us
Sedated, kept in line, not eager to rebel
Animals, stuck in our fucking cages
Rewarded just enough to keep us going on
Hard yakka
Hard yakka
Why can't you see this world of mindless slaves?
Where the rich lead the poor into their shallow graves
distracted by the media, made inferior
Can't you see we're getting fucked?
Taught to be tough, beautiful, or both
And if you can't pull your weight you're just a waste of space
An education that educated regurgitation
While the thinkers fade away without a fucking trace
How is it that all we can say is hard yakka?
Hard fucking yakka mate
