By building up the means for war, we thus preserve the peaceSuch bullshit will prepare us for invasion from the eastAnd meanwhile, they're carving up the landThe anglo-american military have taken full commandIt's keeping us fed we're consuming it allFat on its culture and military controlPreparing for war bit by bitWhilst we're watching its telly and eating its shitThey've got it all worked out and we give our consentThey've got it all worked out and we give our consentThey've got it all worked out and we give our consentThey've got it all worked out for Central AmericaThey've got it all worked out for IrelandBy sitting back and keeping silent we give them our consentBorn in the shadow of the USATaught the fundamental bullshit every dayForce fed on a diet of Great British liesMedia distortions censor our mindsPassive spectators of royaltyToo diverted to care if we're freeICI, BP, Thorn EMIRed, white, and blue logos, British prideWith a Big Mac in one hand and a Coke at our sidesWe've accepted their culture and swallowed their liesThey've put up more fences, watched us and spiedAnd cleverly told us they've got nothing to hideSongtexteFor too long we've watched them preparing for battleBut the fightback is started little by littleKicking at the midst of passive defenseRefusing cruise means tearing down fencesAt Greenham and Molesworth, fences you can seeBut then there's all the barriers that are built around mePolitical, economic, cultural, socialAnd people who live in glass housesShouldn't encourage others to throw stonesLet the glossy shop fronts know what to expectAnd colonel Sanders, you're next
