letra de the law of asbestos - ashenspire

capital’s pre-eminence made matter
nailed to the high-rise, under the budgetary hammer
do they sleep well, wrapped in irony?
better that than tangled in austerity
better ours than their children in poverty

tide over the tampered-with, until it’s their turn;
a corner cut, a penny saved
grenfell burns again and again and again!

there’s worse than the pox for all these houses
the scaffolding holding the bread from their mouths
as it rouses the worker to sell themselves short
both foundation and corner-stone
and entirely bereft of support

if i drink tollen’s reagent, will i finally shine inside?
and will i see myself as god sees me
if i pour it in my eyes?
pour it in my eyes

all’s silent but for the rain;
weary lungs, asthmatic brain

and tell me, is this, now, the humour of it?
some architect’s great satire in prefabricated sh-t
the rot and the damp creeping in, every corner
a reflection of the presupposed sin of every presupposed h–rder;
scrounger! thief! gangrenous scab!
if the game’s afoot i’ll gladly lose the leg
this is not a house of amateurs
this is done with full intent

always three months to the gutter. never three months to the peak
another day to grind your fingers for the simple right to eat
always three months to the gutter. never three months to the crown
another deep breath of asbestos in a godforsaken town
always three months to the gutter. never three months to the top
another set of f-cking homeless spikes outside another empty shop
always three months to the gutter. never three months to ascent
this is not a house of amateurs. this is done with full intent
with full intent!
always three months to the gutter. never three months to the peak
another day to grind your fingers for the simple right to eat
always three months to the gutter. never three months to the crown
another deep breath of asbestos in a godforsaken town
always three months to the gutter. never three months to the top
another set of f-cking homeless spikes outside another empty shop
always three months to the gutter. never three months to ascent
this is not a house of amateurs. this is done with full intent
done with full intent
