| Before they set the world on fire
|
| by decree of the almighty profit
|
| Before the strike the match stick
|
| they passed out big cigars
|
| They’ll sell you a dream
|
| but it’s all a lie
|
| They’ll spend all your money
|
| on party supplies
|
| They’ll act so sincere
|
| pretending to care
|
| They’ll pump you with fear
|
| broadcast through the air
|
| I don’t want to come to your war party
|
| A VIP ticket to a blood orgy
|
| Poisoned food
|
| no water to drink
|
| with the terror threat high
|
| Does it help to think
|
| that your government’s in control?
|
| As the pawns all play their role
|
| And the dead begin coming home
|
| And the pawns have played their role
|
| Before they pull the death card
|
| it’s champagne all around
|
| As smiling glad hands
|
| wave false flags
|
| Napalm
|
| Cyanide
|
| Burning bodies
|
| piled high
|
| Hiroshima
|
| Vietnam
|
| Jesus Christ
|
| Islam
|
| Cold War
|
| Communism
|
| Palestine
|
| Zionism
|
| Holocaust
|
| genocide
|
| mass decay
|
| suicide
|
| Endless wars
|
| feed the machine
|
| Industrial complex
|
| an empire of greed
|
| If we can’t find a profit in peace
|
| they’ll continue to feed the beast
|
| It’s 1, 2, 3
|
| what’re we fighting for?
|
| Don’t ask me I don’t give a damn
|
| Next stop might be Iran
|
| Ain’t no time to wonder why
|
| Whoopee, we’re all going to die
|
| As the pawns all play their role
|
| and the dead are coming home
|
| And the pawns have played their role
|
| and the dead are flying home
|
| Embrace no evil
|
| fear no enemy
|
| Send in the bulls
|
| to a blood orgy
|
| They’ll sell you a dream
|
| but it’s all a lie
|
| They’ll spend all your money
|
| on party supplies
|
| They’ll act so sincere
|
| pretending to care
|
| They’ll pump you with fear
|
| broadcast through the air
|
| No one wants to come to your war party
|
| A VIP ticket to a blood orgy
|
| Poisoned food
|
| no water to drink
|
| with the terror threat high
|
| Does it help to think
|
| that your government’s in control?
|
| As the pawns all play their role
|
| Now the dead begin coming home
|
| And the pawns have played their role
|
| I don’t want to come to your war party |
