Cockburn Bruce — They Call It Democracy

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

D
 Padded with power here they come
 Em          G
 International loan sharks backed by the guns
   D
 Of market hungry military profiteers
     Em          G
 Whose word is a swamp and whose brow is smeared
       D       Em G
 With the blood of the poor
 
 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
 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
 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
 
  A
 IMF dirty MF
 A
 Takes away everything it can get
 A
 Always making certain that there's one thing left
 A                  D Em G D Em G
 Keep them on the hook with insupportable debt
 
 I see the paid-off local bottom feeders
 Passing themselves off as leaders
 Kiss the ladies shake hands with the fellows
 And it's open for business like a cheap bordello
 
 And they call it democracy, and they call it democracy
 And they call it democracy, and they call it democracy
 
 You see the loaded eyes of the children too
 Trying to make the best of it the way kids do
 One day you're going to rise from your habitual feast
 To find yourself staring down the throat of the beast
 They call the revolution
 
 IMF dirty MF
 Takes away everything it can get
 Always making certain that there's one thing left
 Keep them on the hook with insupportable debt
 And they call it democracy
