Union Songs
Con-Dem Love
A song by Bill Clark and Kevin Robins©2011 Clark/Robins (August)
- [play]
They're screwing up my mind, wasting my time Keeping up the pressure on this heart of mine A real obsession, egos out of hand Out to make a make a killing - from their "welfare" scam.
This is Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love Con-Dem love , Con-Dem love .
Laid my cards on the table - told Dr. straight Depressions biting hard and that's hard to take I showed him the scars on my arms where I'd cut He looked me in the eye and said "you're working fit"
This is Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love, they're going to show you what they're capable of!
On a circle of emotion on the treadmill again They took away my social, can't pay the rent What can do I'm so ill I can't fight, I toss and turn I stay awake all night Darkened thoughts are haunting me I'm so afraid of this reality
This is Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love, they're going to show you - what they're capable of.
Sitting in a corner with the lights switched off This no win situation's lost Can't make no plans for you or for me There's no reason to go on you see.
This is Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love, Con-Dem love, they're going to show you - what they're capable of. ( x2 )
They're screwing up my mind and wasting my time Keeping up the pressure on this heart of mine A real obsession, egos out of hand Out to make a make a killing - with their "welfare" scam They're screwing up my mind - taking away my life ........x4
Notes
Many thanks to Bill Clark & Kevin Robins for permission to add this song to the Union Songs collection
Kevin Robins is a singer/songwriter/activist now based in Plymouth (UK).
This song is based on true events, it explains the shear inhumanity of the Conservative & Lib Democrats (Con-Dem's) attacks on the most vulnerable . In particular it deals with those suffering from mental health problems that have been refused benefits and told to look for work.
