Utilizing Peanuts

We declare we like to share our welfare
With the third-world states
But what we really do
Is trying to deceive them and control them financially
Plans and directions have carefully gone through
All those profit calculations
Paying no attention to righteousness and respect
For another human intellect

It may seem as if we try to help
Making things a little better in the world
But it's all planned, so in the end
We're the ones who gain it all
And no one gives a fuck
If it's based on human lives

Inviting ourselves, transforming their crops
Into highly productive industrial parks
And like slaves, they have to work
Growing peanuts for our Friday TV-night
No progress in sight

It may seem as if we try to help
Making things a little better in the world
But it's all planned, so in the end
We're the ones who gain it all
And no one gives a fuck
If it's based on human lives

Even if we restart our planet earth
I'm quite sure we would make
The same mistakes again
We still would be fighting for money and pride
Without any sense of morality
Even though I have dreams of unity and peace
A life where class and race won't even find a way
But in this self-centered world
No one has time to hear what i say
