Who could you feed with these baubles?
Who could you clothe with all this gold?
Who could you save with all this money
Who could you save with all this money

It was a political decision
to pay for all this pageatn
they could spend all this on the hungry tomorrow
if they wanted to. But they don't.

Let's move on, let's move on

Let's move on, let's move on

Write that girl a sonnet
Ladies love a sonnet
Write that girl a sonnet
Instead

Is that the scraping of a barrel
or the pounding of a drum
by the pricking of my thumbs
something vapid this way comes

It's all bread and circuses
It's all bread and circuses
It's all bread and circuses
Where's the bread
Where's the fun?
Down the foodbank?
Feed the hungry first of all
Before you have a parade at all
Think of all the tried and all
Who was fed by ritual?
Down the Mall
It's all bread and circuses
It's all bread and circuses
It's all bread and circuses
And it's gone!

Salem Trials UK
Salem Trials started life in the northern, industrial, town of Bradford in 1987. We recorded lots of songs but did very
little... until we broke up in 1991. Reformed in 2018 and still doing very little except record lots of songs.
May 2020 we joined Metal Postcard Records!
