Call It Democracy - Bruce Cockburn
[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Verse 4]
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 fuck
About the people in misery
