The phrase is commonly attributed to political philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau, from a quote first popularized during the French Revolution: "When the people shall have nothing more to eat, they will eat the rich".

Eat the Rich kind 'a gross sounding but most relevant in this day we're living as it was back then.

EAT THE RICH

Billionaire oligarchs

Running the sh*t-show

Billionaire oligarchs

You know they gotta go

We gotta eat the rich, eat the rich to feed the poor

 

Proven psychopaths

Heartless as can be

Proven psychopaths

Show no empathy

We gotta eat the rich, eat the rich to feed the poor

 

CHORUS

Eat the rich

Eat the rich

We need to even the score

We gotta eat the rich, eat the rich to feed the poor

 

Look behind the curtain

See the hidden hand

By their fruits for certain

Tell everyone you can

We gotta eat the rich, eat the rich to feed the poor

 

CHORUS

Eat the rich

Eat the rich

We need to even the score

We gotta eat the rich, eat the rich to feed the poor

 

Billionaire oligarchs

They’re running the sh*t-show

Billionaire oligarchs

You know they gotta go

We gotta eat the rich, eat the rich to feed the poor.
