Parasites
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The government are real good to us
They crowd in their shelters and let us die
The nuclear holocaust won't last long
White turns to black in the sky
[Chorus]
You build your demolition war
What the hell are you fighting for?
You keep your peace with the starving countries
The Cambodians have to be fed
But can't you see we've got our problems?
You're taxing us to buy tons of lead
[Chorus]
Labour can take the businesses over
Because they've got the worker's rights
A choice of three for democracy
And they're all parasites
[Chorus]
Parasites - taking over the country!
Parasites - taking over your home!
Parasites - taking over your mind!
