Lyrics
[Verse 1]
As far as trying to go up against the government
It's just, unless the whole country did it, I guess
[Verse 2]
(Now you listen to me)
Just enough water
For one third of the world
Oil baron
Running the government
So I'll start a war (Ha, ha-ha)
[Verse 3]
All votes invalid
Use any old lie
Gonna carve up your wealth
Like pumpkin pie
Only fools won't realize and won't be told
That empires run on the old black gold
[Verse 4]
It's a global abrasion
It's consecration
United Nations
It's a total invasion
[Verse 5]
Terrify them
Complete submission
This our goal
This our mission
Destroy your customs
You'll have no say
We'll clothe your women
In the western way
[Verse 6]
It's a **** crusade
A lesson in trade
So all you intellectuals
We're gonna invade
[Verse 7]
It's a global abrasion
It's consecration
United Nations
It's a total invasion
It's a total invasion
[Verse 8]
Mexico city
Twenty-four million people
Half a litre of water a day
Is their ration
[Verse 9]
The final push
The last battle
Eden restored
Man is cattle
We want your oil, we want your land
We'll take your wealth, you'll have much less
We'll change your god to the bitch goddess
[Verse 10]
It's a global abrasion
It's consecration
United Nations
It's a total invasion
[Verse 11]
It's a global abrasion
It's consecration
United Nations
It's a total invasion
