Gary says:
‘Listen.. listen..’
And if you do, you might detect echoes in that ‘Listen..’
(‘Behold.’. ‘ I tell you.’. ‘Lo..’).
Bcs Gary’s on a mission;
In the prophetic voice he tells you: ‘Go, read Dickens..’
Remember. Remember. Remember.
Pay attention. Let those who have ears to hear –
Listen…
Someone said:
You seers manage to interpret the skies alright,
(red sky at night shepherd’s delight and all that basic weather stuff),
But yous’re hypocrites, still pissing around playing games with life.
Bcs why d’you self-proclaimed pundits
fail to interpret the Signs of the Times?
That fits.
Gary says he ain’t tryna persuade the filthy rich to reverse the heist;
to voluntarily return to its rightful custodians
the vast excess of the bounty of God’s Good Earth they’ve redistributed.
To themselves. By trickery, manipulation and sleight of hand.
By collaboration with endless governments and their various bodies,
not to mention by being those governments,
tripping in and out of that revolving door
(the one we don’t have the key for);
those govts meant to protect our interests but very very busy
accumulating their own.
Rich arseholes int never gonna change for a please and thank you from us.
They never did.
So, no. Gary’s on a mission to expose them. To us. To everyone.
Bcs the real story – the great fat truth of it – is still – pretty much – under wraps.
Remember all that stuff about the many and the few?
Yeh, well, it’s still true (always will be). But park that a minute.
Rn the very very few have much and the very very many have few.
But also the few are getting fewer and fewer and fewer.
And also accumulating more and more and more and more and more…
And the many are getting
absolutely fucked.
Gary says we’ve done it before and we can do it again.
Gary proposes a Wealth Tax for a start – which is ofcs rubbished
by the suits and the billionaires (now trillionaires)
they’re doffing their caps to as outriders for the ponzi scheme
they’re screwing us with. But Gary’s not fussed. He says:
Yeh, but just stop deflecting; this is really really important
on a scale of life or death. And if we fail,
we have to go and go again, like Mr Tony Benn once said.
D’you want your kids and grandkids to be sleeping on the streets?
Nah, I ain’t joking, mate. This is for real.
Bcs rn it’s all going down the shitter.
I told you – ‘read Dickens’
Or better still – look out the bloody window…
Listen, if you don’t like my plan, come up with a plan yourselves.
But get this – there’s no time to lose. This ain’t rocket science.
In a few generations they’ve taken the shirts from our back.
The bastards now own EVERYTHING. All the fucking assets
are now locked into their mucky mitts.
What you and your family had, what we had altogether –
Our National Wealth – all gone; and, what’s worse,
by their made-up accounting, by some trickery of perverse equation,
though they’ve completely ripped us,
we’re paying them bloody interest on what they’ve nicked!
Which is why we’re all in debt! (In case you were wondering)..
Hospitals, schools, homes, water, fuel, food production – listen –
I’m telling you – they own the fucking lot.
So, never mind your ‘this won’t work and that won’t work’
like we’ve got time to chat. Listen –
we gotta get it back. I told you – this is life or fucking death.
Do something. Do anything. Pass it on. Tell your Mum.
React.
Resist.
You ready? We go again and again and again till this resets. OK?
Say it loud, say it now,
Say it with Mr Shelley
Like this:
‘Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you –
Ye are many – they are few.’
