The Pinkerton Thugs - The Coldest War lyrics

People say it's peace time We're looking towards the sun We're destroying tanks and bombs no more threatening Red scum The Arabs? They've been silenced and the oils running free So don't worry about your future they've made it safe for you and me But can you fill up your car and turn up your heat knowing the tank is filled with the blood of a terror democracy? How about the puppets we put in power in South America? To make sure we'd have no problems threatening neighbors are such a bother International corporations can not come and reap the harvest If the people are in power they'll realize just why they're starving There's a war going on in your town It's right outside your door It's a war against the black man And a war against the poor Welfare? HA! What a f**ing laugh It's government candy it's poverty's crack For some there's no such thing as peace Economic wars have gone on for centuries The police are an army An army built for you And the CIA and FBI Don't have to follow rules Filter d** down from the heavens and guns ablaze tonight You only feed into their hands when you k** of your own kind Well there's a weapon they have that's more cruel than the bomb Becuase you die off very slowly thinking you create the harm It's a weapon called welfare and it's something many want And they're willing to give it our because it keeps you in the dark Why k** you? You're a bother but no one will stand for that When they can put you in a ghetto style concentration camp What better way to keep a list of everyone that's poor Than to set up a program that keeps you coming back for more Oh to live inside of your world must be such a f**ing dream not to worry day to day about your fellow human beings IF YOU NEED A CANE TO WALK YOU'D GET NOWHERE WITHOUT IT IF YOU NEED A GOVERNMENT TO LIVE THEY'VE GOT YOU WHERE THEY WANT YOU
