You're being used by the rich   You're being used by the rich      In order for the ruling class to keep power   The lower class must be kept under control   They keep us uninformed and make it hard to survive   So we drown in apathy and don't question why      The rich are screwing us over   The rich are screwing us over      You're being used by the rich   You're being used by the rich      Take a few minutes from your idle amusement   Learn for yourself how the rich abuse us   You're stuck in the middle of a silent war   Where the rich struggle to keep down the poor      The rich are screwing us over   The rich are screwing us over      A millionaire will count his money   While a million starve to death   And the majority will stay poor   ô'il we unite and have a class war!      You're being used by the rich   You're being used by the rich      Being greedy is a crime   Let's lock them up for being insane   Instead the dissenters are considered mad   For refusing to follow what the rich man says      The rich are screwing us over   The rich are screwing us over
