Oi Polloi je skotská punková kapela, která vznikla někdy na počátku 80tých let. Původně to byl skinheads-band s textama o chlastu, punks&skins unity, riots, ale už v týhle době měli taky pár písní o právech zvířat. Časem se jejich názory...

Píseň: Fuck everybody who voted tory

Fuaim catha!
In 1979 the Labour government 
Was brought down over its failure 
To grant even limited autonomy to Scotland 
As had been promised in its manifesto. 


Disastrously, the following saw Margaret Thatcher Installed as prime minister 
And ushered in the nightmare scenario 
Of years of right-wing tory government. 


Since then we've seen the systematic erosion 
Of civil liberties, the destruction of the trade union
Movement and the wholesale dismantling 
Of the welfare state and National Health Service 
Not to mention increased state control of television 
And the press, and the abolition of the right to silence. 


Machine gun toting police on our streets 
TV cameras watching your every move 
George Orwell's "1984" is here and now 


Tories win in '79 - come and join the dole queue line 
Smash the unions crush the poor - welcome to 1984 


Fuck everybody who voted tory 


Company director, vivisector 
High court judge and poll tax collector 


Fuck everybody who voted tory 


Yuppies who don't care about human need 
People motivated only by their greed 
Selfish, grasping fools who believe the media story, 
Fuck everybody who voted tory! 


Right-wing, Christian, merchant banker 
Dirty scab, fox hunting wanker 


Fuck everybody who voted tory 


Police - army of the rich, Mary Whitehouse - fuckin' bitch 
Fuck the Queen - the fuckin' slag, n' fuckin' Thatcher, fuckin' hag 


Fuck everybody who voted tory 


Fuck everybody who voted tory 


"I can see the Labour party coming to 
Power in the next election - maybe, maybe not 
Who knows? 
But it doesn't really make a difference 
Who's in power - the State remains the same
The structure is still there
They just tinker with it a little here and there."
