Lyrics Search Party - George the poet

Search Party

I gave you the manifesto of my Search Party
Please read the pages.
My policies support social enterprise, better education
and decent wages
And as long as you wanna be courageous…
I promise you we’re gonna see some changes.
I’m a natural born leader with the skills of a poet
You can feel that it’s real cos you know it.
I speak for the people, cos that’s what a poet’s born to do
So when you think about it, I owe this all to you
I’m making money for the industry off the things you taught me
And that’s never gonna feel right to me
Unless you rise with me, ride with me since you brought me
To a place where I don’t have to write for free.
I paint a
Portrait of Ends at these corporate events.
And you
Know me, I’m never scared of causing offence but they re-
Spect it cos they know that what I’m talking is sense.
Trust me, they’ll pay you more than one-fifty…
There must be a way you all can come with me.
Why should I be the only one with the belly like I
Learned all of this sitting in front of the telly?
I learned it from you, my family as friends.
You give me
Clarity and sense so I can do my job.
That
Means it’s on you whom my salary depends
You need to get this album and bang it in the ends.
There’s too much talent in the ends!
Certain man who never made it out the strip
They’re the same ones who taught me how to spit
They deserve their credit in history
I told you lot already, don’t embed it in mystery.
So I gave you the manifesto of my Search Party
Please read the pages.
My policies support social enterprise, better education
and decent wages
And as long as you wanna be courageous…
I promise you we’re gonna see some changes.
So if you’re in any way interested in
The future of the world you’ve invested in
The destiny of the place you now reside after
All the conventional power’s died, please consider
Walking down to our side.
We can talk about the
Rising North and South divide and of
Course the housing prices, which are now in crisis.
We hold
Discussions on property value and how it rises.
And
Even when we don’t have the answers, we can di-
Rect you to where all the sound advice is.
Our
Policies might not always sound the nicest but you’ve
Finally found a guy that’s down to fight this.
I don’t be-
Lieve being unemployed makes you null-and-void.
I won’t just lie to you when you become annoyed.
I was once a boy who would jump for joy at
Something as simple as a bunch of toys, but
After a while that stuff becomes a ploy to
Help us sidestep the things we want to avoid and at
This stage in my life, I’ve come to a point where I
Want to get everyone who wants a voice to come and
Help me make some constructive noise, I fucks with
Choice, empowerment and participation.
That’s now essential for our situation.
The
Solution is not some half-ass litigation
Masquerading as a first class dissertation that
Ultimately won’t pass the curation stage and therefore won’t
Last the duration.
The solution is commitment to the
Task that we’re facing.
I accept the challenge and I’m asking for patience.
