Waste Not Want Not |
| Take, take, take, takin' what you don’t need |
| You’ll get, get, gettin' what you don’t need |
| Stand back, take a look and take heed |
| All the children in god’s kingdom bleed |
| See the networks of concrete and steel |
| They’ve no mystery but what they reveal |
| Tells a story of a future that’s void |
| Of the beauty and the majesty that life on |
| Earth is meant to be |
| Talk, talk, talk, talk about the government |
| And not a word about political favour |
| Everything touched is my political choice |
| The life you take is your political voice |
| The sacred cows come crashing to their knees |
| Golden harvest reaped without intelligence |
| There’s no chance between the heavens and the seas |
| In a blood bath don’t laugh |
| Grab your piece of golden calf |
| Waste not want not pick it up |
| Waste not want not pick it up |
| Waste not want not pick it up |
| Waste not want not |
| Do unto others as you wish be done to you |
| There’s a million lies 'round everything true |
| You slaughter when you feast |
| You disrespect the beast |
| Make our beds and lie there, take your share |
| Waste not want not pick it up |
| Waste not want not pick it up |
| Waste not want not pick it up |
| Pick it up and eat it |
| Waste not want not |
