Now listen up, Mark Zuckerberg
We've got something to say
We'd like to get this issue
Off our chests and out the way
We've gladly used for ages now
This little site of yours
But it seems that you've been screwing us
From both ends, on all fours

Your attitude towards our privacy
Is quite perverse
But your aiding the subversion
Of democracy is worse
For Cambridge Analytica
Our profiles fuelled their ruse
To warp our minds with lies
Misinformation, and fake news

CHORUS
Fuck Facebook, fuck Facebook
It's not a “data breach”
By design it's meant to put your
Private details within reach
Of the data analysers
Who are paid to profile you
Just to help sell shitty products
And to propagandise too

So they hoovered up our profiles
Just to work out who we are
And then with micro-targeting
They poisoned minds and hearts
They appealed to all our prejudices
And our hopes and fears
So we'd vote the way they want
And fuck our countries up for years

CHORUS
Fuck Facebook, fuck Facebook
For Trump and Brexit too
For enabling propaganda
Meant to hoodwink me and you
Fuck the different Leave campaigns
With their distinctly ratty smell
Fuck the Russians who, it seems
Have moneyed links to this as well

In-between the referendum and that orange “win”
The evidence all points towards just how the fix is in
The truth, dear friends, is in your face, the platform's gone too far
Are we pissed that they've been conning us? YES, WE FUCKING ARE!

CHORUS
Fuck Facebook, fuck Facebook
And the data that they stole
All the texts and calls they logged
Because permissions had a hole
Fuck your hollow claims of your concerns
For our security
Fuck your mealy-mouthed excuses
And your rank hypocrisy

CHORUS
Fuck Facebook, fuck Facebook
It's not a “data breach”
By design it's meant to put your
Private details within reach
Of the data analysers
Who are paid to profile you
Just to help sell shitty products
And to propagandise too

Passive-aggressive songs don't seem
To work for us, somehow
And, we're done with asking nicely, Mark
So, fix this bullshit NOW!
