Age of Greed

Ten percent of the land

Is the hand that pulls the strings

Be the privileged few (to have to own to hold)

Power over the people yes yes

Power over people

Be the privileged few to have to own to hold

Money property assets before lives

Green gestures of a dying planet

An endless debate only too late

An appetite for glutony

The only way is up the only way is up

But when you are up you have to try and stay there

So you stamp and cheat on people

Champagne breakfats (rewards for the killing)

And a fast waist bulging

Indulging, in what you call good living

But most of all there is too much fat on your heart - pig

A lifestyle of cholesterol

Cross collateralized cholesterol

Saving what's left from profit margin

For what?

I'll tell you what for

For some irrelevant conscience easing charity - Why?

Just to justify! Just to justify!

Look at this utopia

A society based on solid foundations

Educate our children - educate them well

To feather the nest and fuck the rest

(Yes yes feather thenest and fuck the rest)

The waste expands

(As your waist expands)

While others stand at the back of the queue

I mean you

Still the same old security

For your creature comforts

Exchanging the hours of your life

For the cash you've already spent

Eating rubbish so you can pay the rent

Table wine once a week if you'relucky

In comparison

Privatise the people's lives

Be part of the company (or fade!)

The appliance of science to privatise their lives

Water is our business

Electricity is our business

Gas is our business

Lives are our business

Business is our business

Your money - my time

Your stinking industrial bathwater - my wine

Imbalance induces hate

How will you fill the gap

Between the endless buffet

And the scraps of food I have

I feel hate I feel hate

I feel hate I feel hate

(Don't be afraid to show your hate, hate!)

You just treat me like a commodity

You didn't know I couldn't even afford to feed my family

I just want to kill

I just want to take a gun

And put it to your head

And pull the trigger
