Additional Information

Lyrics

All our lovely children don’t matter any longer
He who owns the drilling owns the national paper
Pays off those elected meant to do our bidding
Place another order sitting in the sunshine

When somebody stands up sees the contradiction
Buy up all the papers put them out of business
Now they feed the masses trivia and fear
When somebody stands up and offers a solution

Cheap
Cheap as Fuck

Influence 
Beyond law
Behind doors
They do whatever they want

Bend to multinationals corporate agendas
Do a deal with China go out on a bender
Block out all your baggage make it disappear
Wake up with a headache suffering from the fear

Join a private army make yourself a killing
Endless propaganda feed it to the masses
Keep them on a diet trivia and fear
Sell off all your assets it all ends in tears

It’s all kicking off
