WHITEWASH

A TV flickers in the corner
The newsfeed slowly scrolls along
A stream of trivia
Another false flag war
Distract us from what is going on

Tell us about the royal baby
Another C celeb gets a divorce
Million pound deal for some football player
Keep the dead from the neck up
Right on course

We are stronger than the whitewash
How can the invisible be so loud
We will overcome
We will stand strong
They've kept us in the dark too long now

Thousands gather outside Whitehall
Hundreds marching through Trafalgar Square
Another day of peaceful demonstration
Not a single arrest anywhere

We are stronger than the whitewash
How can the invisible be so loud
We will overcome
We will stand strong
They've kept us in the dark too long now

Read all about a troubled protest
War memorials covered in paint
Shop windows smashed cars overturned
They twist it all around once again

We are stronger than the whitewash
How can the invisible be so loud
We will overcome
We will stand strong
They've kept us in the dark too long now

We are stronger than the whitewash
We are stronger than the whitewash
We are stronger than the whitewash
We are stronger than the whitewash
