lyrics

WAR IS A RACKET

Profiteers of misery and death
Instigating fear, manipulating conflict

Shut down all companies that profit from war
The military industry is a plague on the earth
Polluting the planet for personal profit
Drones killing children called collateral damage
No incentive to stop it

Warned, ignored
It's happened many times before

Villains, corrupted system
Funding politicians
To gain contracts
Murdering for cash
Capitalist
False premise
An environment of fear
Sell weapons
Used in mass murder

We're all complicit, they use our tax money
We buy their products and watch their movies
They expand their markets and create new problems
To sell more bombs

'Sinking Feeling' (Nobody Hates You version) was on a playlist I made for a 2014 trip to Hawaii. It's a great tune that makes me happy. This comp is an insanely good deal, get it theMichaelFrank
