About

Song about income inequality narrated from the upper class POV composed in the aftermath of the 2011 Occupy movement, whose most notorious slogan was “We are the 99%” hence the title. The slogan was innovated by anarchist anthropology professor David Graeber (1961 – 2020).

99 Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The events that brought us here
All unfortunate, I fear
But can’t be helped, I am sincere
Envoy from the world below
Take this message to your own
There was no way we could have known

[Pre-Chorus]
Just pieces on the board all waiting to be moved
Tell me why I should care for you?

[Chorus]
I stand above the world
In my glass enclave
And I can not be hurt
By the war and the harrowing waves
From high above the world
I see the ones depraved
They know to stay away
From our walls and the master slaves

[Verse 2]
I live life without remorse
Out of sight is out of mind
I've no regard for their kind
In spite of everything I have
I owe no debt to those who don’t
I played the game and I won

[Pre-Chorus]
Just pieces on the board all waiting to be moved
Tell me why I should care for you?

[Chorus]
I stand above the world
In my glass enclave
And I can not be hurt
By the war and the harrowing waves
From high above the world
I see the ones depraved
They know to stay away
From our walls and the master slaves

[Pre-Chorus]
Just pieces on the board all waiting to be moved
Tell me why I should care for you?

[Chorus]
I stand above the world
In my glass enclave
And I can not be hurt
By the war and the harrowing waves
From high above the world
I see the ones depraved
They know to stay away
From our walls and the master slaves

I stand above the world
In my glass enclave
And I can not be hurt
By the war and the harrowing waves
From high above the world
I see the ones depraved
They know to stay away
From our walls and the master slaves
