The first in a series of singles, Blame Game is a powerful polemic about our collective tendency to blame others for all our ills, and follow leaders who find scapegoats to drive their popularity (guess who??).

lyrics

LONG AGO THE POWERS THAT BE
HARNESSED THEIR COMMUNITY
MANUFACTURED UNITY, THROUGH A COMMON ENEMY
ONE ON WHICH WE MUST AGREE

IT IS SO INSIDIOUS FINDING VICTIMS NOT LIKE US
PULLING FALL GUYS OFF THE SHELF
PITS THE WORLD AGAINST ITSELF, DESPOTS LEADING US BY STEALTH

IT'S A BLAME GAME WE ALL PLAY
A SCAPEGOAT'S NEVER FAR AWAY
A BLAME GAME WE MUST WIN - FIND YOURSELF A VICTIM

IT WILL LEAD TO HARDENED VIEWS
SEEN ON MARCHES AND IN PEWS
STOKING FIRES OF HATEFUL JOY, ALWAYS NEED A WHIPPING BOY
PUBLIC FLOGGINGS ALL ENJOY

REPEAT CHORUS

WE LOOK OUTSIDE OURSELVES TO FIND SOMEONE,
SOMETHING TO PIN ON ALL OUR ILLS, NEVER WITHIN
