|
padded with power here they come |
|
international loan sharks backed by the guns |
|
of market hungry military profiteers |
|
whose word is a swamp and whose brow is smeared |
|
with the blood of the poor |
|
who rob life of its quality |
|
who render rage a necessity |
|
by turning countries into labour camps |
|
modern slavers in drag as champions of freedom |
|
sinister cynical instrument |
|
who makes the gun into a sacrament -- |
|
the only response to the deification |
|
of tyranny by so-called "developed" nations' |
|
idolatry of ideology |
|
north south east west |
|
kill the best and buy the rest |
|
it's just spend a buck to make a buck |
|
you don't really give a flying **** |
|
about the people in misery |
|
IMF dirty MF |
|
takes away everything it can get |
|
always making certain that there's one thing left |
|
keep them on the hook with insupportable debt |
|
see the paid-off local bottom feeders |
|
passing themselves off as leaders |
|
kiss the ladies shake hands with the fellows |
|
open for business like a cheap bordello |
|
and they call it democracy |
|
and they call it democracy |
|
and they call it democracy |
|
and they call it democracy |
|
see the loaded eyes of the children too |
|
trying to make the best of it the way kids do |
|
one day you're going to rise from your habitual feast |
|
to find yourself staring down the throat of the beast |
|
they call the revolution |
|
IMF dirty MF |
|
takes away everything it can get |
|
always making certain that there's one thing left |
|
keep them on the hook with insupportable debt |
