Pinkerton Thugs The Coldest War
People say it's peace time We're looking towards the sun We're destroying tanks and bombs No more threatening "Red scum" The Arabs? They've been silenced And the oil is running free So don't worry about your future They've made it safe for you and me But can you fill up your car and turn up your heat Knowing your tank is filled with the blood of a terror democracy? How about the puppets we put in power in South America? To make sure we'd have no problems, unfriendly neighbors are such a bother International corporations cannot come and reap the harvest If the people are in power they'd realize just why they're starving There is a war going on in your town, it's right outside your door Welfare? Ha! That's a f..cking laugh It's government candy, it's poverty's crack For some there's no such thing as peace Economic wars have gone on for centuries The police? They're an army. An army built for you. And the CIA and FBI don't have to follow rules Filter drugs down from the heavens, and guns a blaze tonight You only feed into their hands when you kill off your own kind Well there's a weapon that they have that's more cruel than the bomb 'Cause you die off very slowly thinking YOU create the harm It's a weapon they call welfare and it's something many want And they're willing to give it out because it keeps you in the dark Why kill you? You're a bother, but no one would stand for that When we can put you in a ghetto style concentration camp What better way to keep a list of everyone that's poor Than to set up a program that keeps you coming back for more Oh to live inside of your world must be such a f..cking dream Not to worry day to day about your fellow human beings IF YOU NEED A CANE TO WALK, YOU'D GET NOWHERE WITHOUT IT. IF YOU NEED A GOVERNMENT TO LIVE THEY'VE GOT YOU WHERE THEY WANT YOU.
