Age of Greed

Ten percent of the land
Is the hand that pulls the strings
Be the privileged few
To have to own to holdPower over the people
Yes, yes, power over people
Be the privileged few
To have to own to holdMoney, property, assets before lives
Green gestures of a dying planet
An endless debate only too late
An appetite for gluttonyThe only way is up, the only way is up
But when you are up you have to try and stay there
So you stamp and cheat on people
Stamp and cheat on peopleChampagne breakfast
Rewards for the killing
And a fast waist bulging, indulging
In what you call good livingBut most of all there is too much fat on your heart, pig
A lifestyle of cholesterol
Cross colateralized cholesterol
Saving what's left from profit margin for what?I'll tell you what for
For some irrelevant conscience
Easing charity, why?
Just to justify, just to justifyLook at this utopia
A society based, based on solid foundations
Educate our children, educate them well
To feather the nest and fuck the rest
Yes, yes, feather the nest and fuck the restThe waste expands, your waist expands
While others stand at the back of the queue
I mean youStill the same old security
For your creature comforts
Exchanging the hours of your life
For the cash you've already spentEating rubbish so you can pay the rent
Table wine once a week if you're lucky
In comparisonPrivatize the people's lives
Be part of the company or fade
The appliance of science
To privatize their livesWater is our business
Electricity is our business
Gas is our business
Lives are our business
Business is our businessYour money, my time
Your stinking industrial bathwater, my wine
Imbalance induces hate
How will you breach the gap
Between the endless buffet
[Incomprehensible] I haveI feel hate, I feel hate
I feel hate, I feel hate
Don't be afraid to show your hate, hateYou just treat me like a commodity
You didn't know I couldn't even afford to feed my family
I just want to kill, I just want to take a gun
And put it to your head and pull the trigger
