Lyrics
There?s trouble everywhere we look
Near and far, on TV, on your powerbook.
Fat cats dancing to the bank,
While we can?t afford to fill our tank.
And kids too young to have a clue,
Think they?re dying to save me and you.
Crimes so big they call them policy.
We?ve been taught to trust authority.
The Almighty tells them what to say
But one day there?ll be hell to pay.
Sleight of hand?s not easy to see.
We?ve become an aristocracy.
Power to the people who can pay.
Each man for himself is the way
It has to be.
They give us wars that we don?t need,
To pay for their outrageous greed
Send children to get maimed or to die
And help themselves to the last piece of pie.
We can?t save the world and make it free.
It?s hard enough to save our families.
There?s just one way to win this race.
That?s taking care of your own place.
When the light within shines bright and true
The world will start coming to you.
