Featuring Ellen Reid on lead vocals, this song is about do-gooder being punished and not rewarded for their efforts.
This song also made the Dumb and Dumber soundtrack.

Imagine then seeing photos of a crying five year old being detained.
Imagine then thinking “Yeah. That deserves more funding” and voting for it.
