It will happen in a way we barely notice We have to resist long before it exists They'll take our freedom and rights a little at a time There will be just no stopping the march of the fascists When fascism comes, our flag it'll be waving When it comes it'll have a different name and be a more subtle kind Before we know it we'll be beyond saving We don't believe we can be so fooled, our Britishness makes us blind History repeats, on the wall is the writing Generations will pass, history is forgotten or ignored We voted for the same things our grandparents died fighting Open the door just a crack, it'll breeze in and destroy us all It's hard to believe there are men so evil That they have such disregard for people We will stop caring, become desensitized Begins with the lies of politicians seeking to divide It will be us versus them, intolerance, fear and hate We all will become mindlessly obedient and turn a blind eye When fascism comes our flag it'll be waving When it comes it'll have a different name and be a more subtle kind (Cronyism, corruption, experts, intellectuals not respected) Before we know it we'll be beyond saving We don't believe we can be so fooled, our Britishness makes us blind (Rigged elections, no free press, corporate power protected) History repeats, on the wall is the writing Generations will pass, history is forgotten or ignored (Obsession with crime and punishment, and national security) We voted for the same things our grandparents died fighting Open the door just a crack, it'll breeze in and destroy us all (Labour power suppression, manufactured enemies) Nationalism and military might There will be no such thing as human rights
