Enemy

You’re the enemy, you’re the enemy
You’re the enemy of the people

Verse

You push political left, against ambivalent right
And if a knife doesn't get you
Then everything's all right

Verse

Coup d’état with a push: so you can push them down
Get your face pulled, and your tum-tucked uniform:
It'll astound them

Chorus

Bodies to your left and dollars to your right
But once you take control you know
That it's gonna be alright

You're not the hero of this song, Mr. Straw Man
No, you're the enemy of the people
You're not the hero of this song, Mr. Strong Man
No, you're the enemy of the people
You're the enemy, you're the enemy
You're the enemy and you’re evil

Verse

You like to say yes, but what you're saying is no
Put the workers to the wall, safety clips: let em go

Verse

You clever little p***: the jokes’ on you
I'd gladly take to a stick on the tie on your neck:
It’s never tight enough
Don't tell me sad stories bout your sad life
Cos I don’t care

Chorus

Dollars to your left and bodies to your right
But once you take control you know that
It's gonna be alright

You're not the hero of this song, mister straw man
No, you're the enemy of the people
You're not the hero of this song, mister strong man
No, you're the enemy of the people
You're the enemy, you're the enemy
You're the enemy and you’re evil

Break

Look at you checking your tie as all the windows' shatter
Killing us slowly with your chitter-chatter
Vanity blushes in your shameless, poor company

Chorus

You're not the hero of this song, mister straw man
No, you're the enemy of the people
You're not the hero of this song, mister strong man
No, you're the enemy of the people
You're the enemy, you're the enemy
You're the enemy and you’re evil

Give it up, give it up, give yourself up now
Give it up, give it up, give yourself up now
