The Lyrics
So many social causes to improve our way of life. If you thought political correctness, misrepresenting people based on their gender (any 58 options on Facebook), and losing the pronoun game, would cause you some trouble, think of this song. Fact is, the proliferation of assorted groups trying to get the highest moral high ground, can pose more of an inconvenience and conflict of interest. Occupy Wall Street didn't achieve its end goal in the US, what chance do you think other fringe groups have? Nothing but petty lawsuits across the board.
(Verse 1)
Saw you there at, an Occupy protest
With many others being oppressed
Having hard times making ends meet
So we take this, movement on ev’ry single street
Around the world, addressing the wage gap
No employment, for chapess* and chap
Day and night without any nap
More problems not solved with a snap
(Bridge 1)
Started up a, chain of events
It’s not enough
Dollars and cents
But Gen Z, makes the social revolution
(Chorus)
Always complain, never quite right
Putting elites in their sight
SJW’s, all, in, a rage
Wrong thinking for this time and age
(Verse 2)
Is there something really wrong with my race?
New minority to displace
Would it help if I got sur-ger-y
To protect me from injury
A new privilege is what we implore
Hashtags never used before
Criticize of past human mistakes
So our leaders get more than just headaches
(Bridge 2)
Statistics we will not need
Change the laws, don’t mislead
Tell the press, we are “non-violent”
(Chorus)
(Guitar solo)
(Verse 3)
Have an issue that you always complain
Time to get woke and, considered sane
Go to Youtube rant, on your disdain
In elections we do this all again
(Chorus)
(Outro)
Always complain from my own safe space
Always complain show them your disgrace
Always complain you special snowflake
Always with an ethical heartache
(Fade out)
Saw you there at, an Occupy protest
With many others being oppressed
Having hard times making ends meet
So we take this, movement on ev’ry single street
Around the world, addressing the wage gap
No employment, for chapess* and chap
Day and night without any nap
More problems not solved with a snap
(Bridge 1)
Started up a, chain of events
It’s not enough
Dollars and cents
But Gen Z, makes the social revolution
(Chorus)
Always complain, never quite right
Putting elites in their sight
SJW’s, all, in, a rage
Wrong thinking for this time and age
(Verse 2)
Is there something really wrong with my race?
New minority to displace
Would it help if I got sur-ger-y
To protect me from injury
A new privilege is what we implore

So our leaders get more than just headaches

Always complain show them your disgrace
Always complain you special snowflake
Always with an ethical heartache

Each generation thinks they are the first to discover sex and protest.
I probably could have used Facebook or Discord in place of YouTube here.
