lyrics

Vale of Plenty

1st verse
I see old people walking the street collecting bottles from the litter bin
They have to queue at charities for extra food to fill their fridge
They worked away all their lives dreaming of places they will never see
They sacrificed their strength, their minds and now they have to sacrifice their grace

Bridge
I can’t believe that a lifetime’s work in the end just doesn’t pay
I can’t believe that our social state is supposed to work this way

Chorus
We live in a vale of plenty where the distribution fails
We live in a vale of plenty where access is denied – to most

2nd verse
I see kids of parents who break their backs just to make ends meet
Who only wish for a happy childhood without troubles and enough to eat
They raise their siblings, have to fend for themselves but at night they can only cry
They would love to perform well in life but they neither have the chance nor the time

Bridge
I can’t believe that in this world a child can’t be a child anymore
I can’t believe that we forget about those who need our protection the most

Chorus

Solo

I'm not sure what they put in the water in the state of PA.,but whatever it is produces tough as nails Oi. Boot Rally has that great gruff American Oi sound that I love. Its a soundtrack for a 40 hour week-- or for breaking a bottle over some mouthy prick's head. East Bay Working Class
