A song inspired by some of the wonderful people in politics in the UK. Sounds vaguely Floyd/Marillion. I hope you enjoy

Story behind the song
A track from the forthcoming album Dying World by Freudian Slip. I decided to record this one after watching the BBC one night. Lyrics took all of 5 minutes. After I had done the music and vocals, Darren Greaves supplied some wonderful Acoustic and Electric guitars and then did the final mastering/production. Came out pretty well I think.
Lyrics
Did you vote for the snakes in the grass? Did you hope for better ways? Do you feel betrayed by the people that you trusted? Did you really think that anything would change? They shake your hand and stab you in the back Kissing babies on the way Steal the money from your pocket Buy a house in Berkeley square, from the tax they never pay Did you hope, demons would be angels? And Judas was the messiah Will you shout? Or will you hide? Will you run? Or will you fight?
