Barefaced Cynics poor wretches

Select language to translate this lyric

Darker earlier
It's getting colder
We know what's coming
Where did the year go?
And I can see my breath
A good reminder that I am alive
As if I'd forgotten
Be grateful for what you've got
Is the message that we're getting
From the people at the top
How helpful, Of course,
Why didn't we think of that?
We're so lucky to have you
Decisions have been made
We're not paid to think
We moan but we never complain
It must be so lonely
All the way up there
And there are no ladders left
You have made sure of that
Where did your friends go?
We should
stay where we are
Be content
Not strive for anything more
Your fortunes are safe
We moan but we never complain
