You're Not Alone remixed with Coldplay's Magic. Badly. If anyone can help that'd be fantastic.

Coldplay Magic Remix - A Message of Hope for Chris Martin

A posh white boy raps badly to explain Thomas Piketty's Capital. Honestly, probably best you go read it.

Lyrics:
Piketty’s capital is a big book
It’s an important book It’s got lots of pages
I read it in stages it took me ages
Now I’ll summarise it for you for no wages

The book says that’s what it’s all about
Whether the wage we receive is fair for what we put out
Is inequality great or should we turn it around
People say what they believe even though there’s doubt
 
Piketty came and played with the data
Tax mainly from UK, France, America
He extrapolates that data further
Makes a basis for the future

Like in 1910 in the UK
The top 1% took a fifth of the pay
We like to think that now things have changed
But now we’re back at a sixth and it’s staying that way 

Let’s see if this makes you feel like peasantry
The one percent own a third of the country
The bottom half have a twentieth between them
They must be laughing we’re like serfs and cavalry 

And if you’re in the US and think this doesn’t apply
Then the media lies have led to denial
Your inequality is even higher
Cry land of the free your poor are dying
 

You shouldn’t get something for nothing
Live by your own means
You shouldn’t get nothing for something
You’ve earned those hard-owned dreams
You shouldn’t get something for nothing
Daddy’s fund is not your right

 
Get cash in the bank so it’s time to invest
Feel flash? yes thanks it’s mine I want rent
Your stash will give you 5 percent interest
Rent may be theft but interest is best

It’s all about capital, those that have it all
Whether stocks, bonds, art, land or oil
The stuff that’s owned past natures toil
You work, yeah sure, but to capital the spoils

The economy grows and we all earn more
And capital grows and people own more
But if it grows faster then it takes more
The greater proportion that should be for us all

Wealth becomes the greatest  part of identity
It’s not what do you do, it’s are you part of the gentry
R greater than g means rising inequality
It’s harder to earn further than those that have been

And the illusion and confusion of who owns this land
Tax havens hide billions deception is planned
There’s no corporations and foundations just man
These structures are to hide their hand

Solutions proposed shot down unopposed
The flow goes from those that need it most
Those that have earn more than those that don’t
The wealth grows slow but soon we’ll all be owned


Piketty
Enters a 
State of
Utopia
A call for
Nations to
Come together
Impose a
Global tax
Put wealth on
agenda
A calm solution
Not revolution
But the old hold the votes and they own the wealth too
No smooth transition we need a coup
Of young minds who’ll see a vote through
Next election we’ll land them a bruise

Cos I’ll be damned if I live in a country that can’t
Progressively tax land I shan’t 
Let the one percent off without barely a glance
While the welfare state is avalanched

Meritocracy breeds democracy breathes equality
But all I see is hypocrisy 
We have to believe we’re all born equal
But wealth passed down from generation to generation destroys that

A song from my multimedia eBook The Flood

Two By Two

Mixing up the genres for a pretend film - sci-fi murder mystery start into fun happening synths finishing off by playing that theme on some big electric guitars.

A remix of Hall of the Mountain King with Ni**as in Paris by Jay Z & Kanye West. 

This is my first remix, and will therefore probably be my last...

Hall of the Ni**as

So, the UK has now decided we can all see each other at Christmas, which is excellent! However it ruins a song that I was working on with Nikki.

Enjoy. Christmas is coming!
