lirik lagu the herd - the plunderers
dear overseer
it’s ages since you graced my pages
but this sh-t goes in stages
how the machine rages
i’ve got a spanner for your works
whole patches of industry
i’ve got no manners for you jerks
you wouldn’t listen to me
an eco friendly emblem on a petrol station
like a f-cking referendum for a queen without a nation
lies about land rights
build uranium mines, avoiding millions in tax
you’ve never paid a fine
when, in the ear of our leaders, to start a war like that
if we don’t know who were fighting, well then we won’t fight back
so i’m calling you out
to let you know we know
your branding shines like gold
and hides the sh-t below
ever thought that’s why jordan is no politics major
because he can’t stand the thought of his slaves in asia
who puts a b-boy and a surfer in the same ad break?
i beat the real thing, because it’s so f-cking fake
he tells a pack of lies and then tries to murder the truth
he’s just the same two guys, who tell you all the news
and who’s that chimpanzee, straight out a western movie
and here come little johnny wanna be his deputy
the world is cleft you see
made to fight one another
economic big brother operating deep cover
so im calling you out
to let you know we know
your branding shines like gold
and hides the sh-t below
because everything is really not okay
despite the forecast of another beautiful grey
i mean a beautiful day
blessed with optimism
a few more companies are k!lling off their compet-tion
even blackouts couldn’t make these devils sto-op and listen
a rat race, that’s disgraced and should not be forgiven
it’s not your pipe to p-ss in
so there’s a price to pay
whilst burning you’ll be thinking about it everyday
the gap gets greater
and so i’d watch your step
once slip and there goes your neck
sleep with a sweat
there’s too many now looking for your downfall
in the eighties all they thought about was how tall
could a corp climb higher than a star sign
make money marry money
and make more money
mankind suckered out like a bloodthirsty vampire
they call you citizens upstanding
but we call you d-mn liars
image built brand empires all targets
we’ll “boycott attack” and defame just for starters
press charges? and bring your lawyers to the table?
but the tables are turning so get out while your able
sample
“i love convenience, i love corporations because they give me convenience
i i i-saw on the news that there’s all these people trying to stop these corporations spread the convenience
and that’s err.. that’s why we’ve got to help the developing nations get their mc’donalds, get their 7/11s
ahmean they haven’t even tasted the goodness yet man.”
end
whilst ever there’s oppression up will rise dissent
seen through every century, the anger finds a vent
us forces – just like wwf
iraq’s getting body-slammed – by george dubya’s best
keep pushing till the point comes – where the people have had enough
and disillusion cause of ills – that are struck or are corrupt
can’t trust a cop, a politician or a tv set
now everyone’s upset
and yet they still forget
forget facts
remember brands
we get jacked
but bite our hand
the media is on crack
and (they) hide our heads in the sand
now every woman and man
sing your favourote theme song
that catchy jingle
opposite to what really goes on
our movement’s strong
we’re going from strength to strength
your fradgulant future’s – something that we can prevent
we’ve come to cause a dissonance – within your picket fence
if you still say dismissing your staff’s – good business sense
more protesters will die
as more companies collapse
so we’re questioning the false wisdom – lying behind that
shout to the people – to stand against this cr-p
and revolutionaries who act with beats and raps
