(On watching American style Black Friday sales take hold in the UK)

You can keep your liberty.

It was never mine at all.

You can keep it for my sanity.

 

I don’t need materiality.

I don’t need your shopping mall.

You can keep your liberty.

 

It’s a life of pure gratuity,

where nothing good comes small.

You can keep it for my sanity.

 

I don’t need the sheer brutality.

I don’t need the endless brawls.

You can keep your liberty.

 

It’s a life of immorality,

where no one can stand tall.

You can keep it for my sanity.

 

I don’t need the criminality.

I don’t need another fall,

You can keep your liberty.

You can keep it for my sanity.
