More Whitewashing - Chumbawamba (恰巴王八)[00:00:00]

Children in school forced to the desk[00:00:13]

Finger the atlas and study the text[00:00:19]

Lies and opinion presented as fact[00:00:26]

Taught to accept and never to ask[00:00:32]

Those smiling workers in Ladybird books[00:00:37]

They＇re not picking coffee at all[00:00:41]

They＇re busy with bricks and mortar[00:00:43]

Building the company wall[00:00:46]

Flickering pictures hypnotize[00:00:50]

We spend our lives watching others＇ lives[00:00:57]

Too much watching to realize[00:01:03]

That this is a smokescreen[00:01:07]

And this is why people die[00:01:10]

Those smiling news presenters[00:01:14]

They＇re not reading cue-cards at all[00:01:17]

They＇re busy with brush and bucket[00:01:20]

Whitewashing the company wall[00:01:24]

Set yourself up and play it again[00:01:27]

Force the tears and entertain[00:01:34]

Sing about a world of make-believe[00:01:40]

Force this charity and leave[00:01:45]

Rich people who claim to know[00:01:51]

What＇s wrong with this world[00:01:53]

Can＇t know anything at all[00:01:54]

They＇re busy giving the orders[00:01:57]

For us to build their second homes[00:02:00]

Flickering pictures hypnotize[00:02:04]

Flickering pictures hypnotize[00:02:10]

And we who take the orders[00:02:15]

And refuse to question it all[00:02:18]

We＇re busy with spade and Bible[00:02:21]

Burying the poor[00:02:24]

Burying the poor[00:02:27]

Mass-manufactured and given away[00:02:56]

Blinkers to get you through your day[00:02:59]

Easily fooled all your problems solved[00:03:04]

You＇ll say starvation has nothing to do with you[00:03:07]

You saw it in print so it must be true[00:03:09]

And the documentary explained it all[00:03:11]

It＇s a simple matter of birth control[00:03:14]

And if you send a little money you can sleep tonight[00:03:22]

Or starve in sympathy on a Limmits Diet[00:03:24]

And you know that charity cures malnutrition[00:03:27]

And hunger put the sparkle back in television[00:03:29]

Hunger put the sparkle back in television[00:03:32]

Hunger put the sparkle back in television[00:03:35]
