In 'Great', the sincerely fun UK hardcore band IDLES extends a hand to working class England and asks the people to consider that life could actually be great if we stopped blaming & closing doors and realise we're in this together. It's really great.
From the upcoming album "Joy as an act of resistance".

GREAT Blighty wants his country back / Fifty-inch screen in his cul-de-sac / Wombic charm of the Union Jack / As he cries at the price of a bacon bap / Islam didn’t eat your hamster / Change isn’t a crime / So won't you take my hand sir / And sing with me in time / G R E A T / Blighty wants her blue passport /Not quite sure what the union’s for / Burning bridges and closing doors / Not sure what she sees on the seashore / Islam didn’t eat your hamster / Change isn’t a crime / So won't you take my hand sister / And sing with me in time / G R E A T / You can have it all, I don’t mind / Just get ready to work overtime / ‘Cause we’re all in this together.
