about

Society’s full of armchair critics - people who are cynical about the motives and actions of anybody else who tries to actually do anything. There’s obviously a place for looking critically at what governments or organisations are doing. But that sort of cynicism is not going to get us far. Having a knee-jerk, negative reaction to everything is not going to help bring about any changes.
Positive ideas, engagement and activism are the only way to make the world around us a better place. I know that it’s easier to say what you don’t agree with, and that stating your beliefs opens yourself up to ridicule and scrutiny, but it’s just not enough to hide behind that sort of cynicism. Contribute.

lyrics

It’s so easy to be critical. It’s so easy just to moan - you can do it without having any ideas of your own. It seems that everyone’s an idiot except for you, but armchair criticism is all you ever do. So tell me, what do you believe in? What do you hold true? I’ve heard you say how shit it is, so now it’s over to you. It’s so easy to be negative - easy to deride. If you don’t put your own thoughts to the test then there’s nothing to hide. Shouting at the telly, or ranting in the bar - do you really think that’s going to get us very far?
