future (Remove filter)
The time has come.
The time has came.
Today is the day.
It is here upon us
and there's no going back.
Today we'll celebrate
the class of 2014-2015
as we leave our nest
and as we say goodbye.
And as we walk down that stage

And now that this time is here

Silence the busses and with muffled bullhorn
Bring out the coffin, let the workers come.
Let politicians circle, moaning overhead
confessing on the airwaves, He Is RED,
Put nooses round the white necks of the bosses,
Let the riot policemen carry their o...
