[Intro]
Democracy: the rule of the masses
The masses: any large group of bovine-like automatons
Possessing an adeptness
And the ability to confuse excrement with the common goals
[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
Modеrn slavers in drag as champions of freedom
[Verse 3]
Sinister cynical instrument
Who makеs the gun into a sacrament—
The only response to the deification
Of tyranny by so-called "developed" nations'
Idolatry of ideology
