The 2010s

Stress of revision
A Levels and GCSEs
Eton posh boys

Forced to grow up
By a cabal of sadists
Those exams meant nothing

Unreliable, overpriced public transport
Makes cars mandatory
Work is far away
And what is work?
Making someone else rich
Slavery by another name
I want to make art
But that doesn't pay
So I needed a job
Jobs get in the way
Houses are costly
Even to rent

So, in the 2020s
Fuck the establishment.
