Peace Profit
Made in a country near you
Things to do a job
What type of job?
To heal to kill to create to destroy
All in the ACME factory
Ready steady go get to work!
Fulfill your shift
Do your quota
Finish the order yesterday
There’s much work to be done
You busy little bees
Make the fat boss rich
Capitalist wage slaves
Even the commies are the same
Make some more do the work
Enrich the rich you wanker
There’s no profit in laziness or peace
We are all environmental commodities
(People think crime is easy and will pay. I often think about this. The weapons industry is a type of crime and makes a huge amount of cash more than any other. I politicians are criminals here waging their wars and getting corrupted and fat off power. While so many die. That’s a real crime…)
