Call It Democracy - Bruce Cockburn[00:00:00]

Padded with power[00:00:14]

Here they come[00:00:16]

International loan sharks backed by the guns[00:00:17]

Of market hungry military profiteers[00:00:20]

Whose word is a swamp and whose brow is smeared[00:00:23]

With the blood of the poor[00:00:26]

Who rob life of it's quality[00:00:32]

Who render rage a necessity[00:00:35]

By turning countries into labour camps[00:00:38]

Modern slavers in drag as champions of freedom[00:00:41]

Sinister cynical instrument[00:00:56]

Who makes the gun into a sacrament[00:00:59]

The only response to the deification[00:01:02]

Of tyranny by so called developed nations'[00:01:04]

Idolatry of ideology[00:01:07]

North south east west[00:01:14]

Kill the best and buy the rest[00:01:17]

It's just[00:01:19]

Spend a buck to make a buck[00:01:20]

You don't really give a flying f**k[00:01:23]

About the people in misery[00:01:25]

Imf dirty mf[00:01:32]

Takes away everything it can get[00:01:35]

Always making certain that there's one thing left[00:01:37]

Keep them on the hook with insupportable debt[00:01:41]

See the paid off local bottom feeders[00:01:55]

Passing themselves off as leaders[00:01:59]

Kiss the ladies shake hands with the fellows[00:02:02]

Open for business like a cheap bordello[00:02:05]

And they call it democracy[00:02:07]

And they call it democracy[00:02:10]

And they call it democracy[00:02:13]

And they call it democracy[00:02:16]

See the loaded eyes of the children too[00:02:19]

Trying to make the best of it the way kids[00:02:22]

Do[00:02:25]

One day you're going to rise from your habitual feast[00:02:25]

To find yourself staring down the throat of the beast[00:02:28]

They call the revolution[00:02:31]

Imf dirty mf[00:02:38]

Takes away everything it can get[00:02:40]

Always making certain that there's one thing left[00:02:43]

Keep them on the hook with insupportable debt[00:02:46]

And they call it democracy[00:02:55]

And they call it democracy[00:03:01]

And they call it democracy[00:03:07]

And they call it democracy[00:03:13]
