Bad Man
Hey mister rich man tell me how you sleep
When the people who work for you don't have enough to eat
Hey mister minister so sombre and stark
Playing with bafanas bananas in the dark
Hey mister freedom fighter with your war cry
Sipping champagne at the Durban july
Hey mister preacher you say love is the way
But how can you hate someone just because they're gay
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a cult of personality a poet of dread
Building cathedrals with the bones of the dead
You pillage and plunder and scorch the earth
Depriving all your victims of their worth
Your bloodthirsty god wants a sacrifice
His thundering heart as cold as ice
You build machines that can only destroy
You're high on power but low on joy
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You take what you want, just do as you please and nobody will stand in your way
You speak for the masses a drunken herd of sheep that you have led astray
You open up your big mouth the lies fly out like locusts from a Biblical plaque
Don't believe in education, your sentences are jumbled and your rhetoric is vague
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
When the people who work for you don't have enough to eat
Hey mister minister so sombre and stark
Playing with bafanas bananas in the dark
Hey mister freedom fighter with your war cry
Sipping champagne at the Durban july
Hey mister preacher you say love is the way
But how can you hate someone just because they're gay
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a cult of personality a poet of dread
Building cathedrals with the bones of the dead
You pillage and plunder and scorch the earth
Depriving all your victims of their worth
Your bloodthirsty god wants a sacrifice
His thundering heart as cold as ice
You build machines that can only destroy
You're high on power but low on joy
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You take what you want, just do as you please and nobody will stand in your way
You speak for the masses a drunken herd of sheep that you have led astray
You open up your big mouth the lies fly out like locusts from a Biblical plaque
Don't believe in education, your sentences are jumbled and your rhetoric is vague
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
You're a bad man, bad man
You're a bad man, bad man son of the devil below
