Fanfare for the Conscious Man |
| Each nation used to provide its country with security |
| With factories providing arms for their country |
| Now multi-national companies compete in the arms trade |
| To serve any customer maximizing the money to be made |
| So just as farms compete to provide fruit for other countries |
| So people can live to enjoy the taste of nature |
| National warehouses compete to provide arms |
| Around the world to aid death and all hell unfurled |
| Our gracious queen should grasp her crown |
| And take a good fucking swing at Blair and Brown |
| For leading her country into illegal warfare |
| And trying to pass it off that we’re doing it 'cause we care |
| «Now preemptive wars are a redemptive cause» |
| I’ve never heard such nonsense under international laws |
| We think we have the right to enforce democracy |
| When we’re weakening ours everyday, what a hypocrisy |
| We’ll be together against this! |
| We’ll be forever against this! |
| We’ll be together against this! |
| We’ll be forever against this! |
| Fuck, man |
| I just woke up to a land where killing is part of every day |
| And every mind of this intelligent species |
| Is led blinded into the battlefield |
| Like it’s natural for us to break instead of build |
| Unity’s intrinsic, the only cause worth fighting for |
| All religions, colours, and creeds |
| Now we are the world and we are the people |
| We are the world and we are the people |
| And we will be heard |
| We’ll be together against this! |
| We’ll be forever against this! |
| We’ll be together against this! |
| We’ll be forever against this! |
| We’ll be together against this! |
| We’ll be forever against this! |
| We’ll be together against this! |
| We’ll be forever against this! |
