Market Forces

9/11 was too fishy. Building Seven collapsed at Five Twenty
Free-fell on its own footprint. Black's been white ever since
Some call me a conspiracy nut because
I get my news from the internet
That's too rich; you've got to laugh
They get theirs from the Telegraph
It's awkward when you leave the team
And those who don't disturb the dream
I don't know if it's conspiracy but this is the actuality

Market forces are taking the town
Market forces are dumbing us down
Market forces are bombing the schools
Market forces are making the rules

1984 is now; George Orwell, take a bow
They screwed us when the towers fell
Unleashed war and merry hell
Bin Laden was a frightful lie
Swine flu and pigs fly
They gave us the GFC and vacuumed the economy
They send in the IMF to privatise public assets
The World Bank and its corporate mates then
Seize control of the ship of state

Market forces are taking the town
Market forces are dumbing us down
Market forces are bombing the schools
Market forces are making us fools

Bigger issues are at hand in reality kitchen land
Is the beef cooked enough; is the lamb really stuffed?
Corporations are psychopaths
They don't care they do the maths
Fear is the best business plan; want to survive? Pay the man

Pharmaceutical companies pay the doctor to sell disease
Two syndromes for everyone unless you've got money, drugs and guns

What good is all this knowledge to me except to measure hypocrisy
Market forces pay no heed, they take their orders from fear and greed
They will march till we decide we would rather love than die
Until then we fight the fight and those who say that might is right

Market forces are taking the town
Market forces are dumbing us down
Market forces are bombing the schools
Market forces are making the rules

Bigger issues are at hand in reality kitchen land
Is the beef cooked enough? Is the lamb really stuffed?
