Lyrics
Verse 1
The people want answers so you can explain
Cos you are a politician with an awful lot to say
In a posh Eton voice and with a shiny silver spoon
That you were always fed with so you can’t seem to lose

Verse 2
I can hear your lies in the ayes to the right
Cos you can starve the kids and then sleep peacefully at night In a seven acre gaff on the family patch
With a portrait of the king and a blow up Maggie Thatcher

Chorus
It’s a sacrifice and I’m paying the price
Lost in austerity but when you cut it’s us who bleed
I don’t believe all the things that I read
Cos the only cuts we really need are the 1% on a guillotine

Verse 3
The people want answers, so you can explain
How you make cuts to welfare then give immigrants the blame In your Sunday best you will sell the NHS
Then blame it on the poor in a government report

Chorus
It’s a sacrifice and I’m paying the price
Lost in austerity but when you cut it’s us who bleed
I don’t believe all the things that I read
Cos the only cuts we really need are the 1% on a guillotine

Bridge
I’m tightening my belt and picking pennies off the floor
While those in number 10 enjoy their scotch and caviar
I’m begging at their feet as the bodies line the street
With my back against the wall but I won’t stand for this no more You’re a parasite
You’re full of lies
But you carry on talking
In blue and white
I know your type
You’re rich so you do what you like
A parasite you’re full of lies
Look at me when I’m talking
The only cuts we really need are the 1% on a guillotine

Chorus
It’s a sacrifice and I’m paying the price
Lost in austerity but when you cut it’s us who bleed
I don’t believe all the things that I read
Cos the only cuts we really need are the 1% on a guillotine

Outro
I can hear your lies in the ayes to the right
Cos you can starve the kids and then sleep peacefully at night In a seven acre gaff on the family patch
With a portrait of the king and a blow up Maggie Thatcher

Inspired to fight against the economic struggles facing their hometown of Bradford, Drella is the project of Jonny, Toby and Alfie, who combine politicised lyrics with gritty guitar riffs, catchy bass lines and thunderous drums to deliver their brand of alternative rock.

Their recent single “Divide” was championed by Tom Robinson at BBC 6 Music, who described them as a band who “not only talk the talk, but also walk the walk”, as well as Alyx Holcombe at BBC Radio 1, who said “they make me want to mosh and get feral!”. The track was also named Track of the Week by Emily Pilbeam at BBC Introducing in West Yorkshire and was described as “a high-octane masterpiece” by RGM magazine.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of The White Stripes, IDLES and Kid Kapichi, Drella’s energetic sound promises to deliver an exciting live show.

“The political bleakness of our contemporary age affects almost everyone… Drella are here to give voice to that fury and show us that we’re together in our isolation” - Poppy Bristow, Fresh on the Net
