Far left, far right, centre It's power they crave The politics of apartheid The politics of shame The cold abuse of human rights Of torture and of pain Are only part of the action When you're an african The politics of making more The politics of greed The cold abuse of poverty To keep your labour cheap Are only part of the action When you're a working man African, asian, it's all the same Brown, black, caucasian It's all the same Slave labour, working class What's in a name? Far left, far right, centre Far left, far right, centre Far left, far right, centre It's power they crave The politics of buying arms When there's no food to eat The politics of digging gold Instead of planting seeds The leader with his private golf course And his flashy cars Sits playing with his diamond wrist watch While the people starve The politics of shooting down A plane that brings relief By fat men playing power games Who've got enough to eat The politics of racial hate The politics of war The men who sell the guns have fun While we all count the score One, two, three, four Thousands, millions People dying just to keep Them in the action Through the eyes of a man There's wrong and there's right A reason to hate There's need for a fight There's colour, there's creed There's malice, there's greed When the child becomes a man Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Believe In Me, Berlin, Beyond The Grave, Blue Johns Blues, Capricorn, Cheap The Bullet, Child Of The Universe, Children Of The Disappeared, Classics A Tale Of Two Sixties, Classics: A Tale Of Two Sixties, Cold War, Copii Romania, Crazy (over You), Crazy City, Dark Now My Sky, Death Of A City, Delph Town Morn, Do You Believe In Dreams (same Chance For Everyone), Doctor Doctor, Echoes And Shadows, Fact The Closed Shop, Fact: The Closed Shop, Fantasy Loving Is Easy, Fantasy: Loving Is Easy, Fiction The Streets Of San Francisco, Fiction: The Streets Of San Francisco, Fifties Child, Following Me, For No One, For Your Love, Forever Yesterday, Friend Of Mine, Galadriel, Giving It Up, Good Love Child, Guitar Blues, Halfway To Freedom, Happy Old World, Harbour, Hard Hearted Woman, Harrys Song, He Said Love, High Wire, Highway For Fools, Hold On, How Do You Feel Now, Hymn, Hymn For The Children, If Love Is King, Im Like A Train, Other Barclay James Harvest, The song Lyrics (took Me) So Long Lyrics A Matter Of Time Lyrics African Nights Lyrics After The Day Lyrics All My Life Lyrics Alone In The Night Lyrics Alright Down Get Boogie (mu Ala Rusic) Lyrics Back In The Game Lyrics Back To Earth Lyrics Back To The Wall Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Barcode Lyrics Barcode Brothers Lyrics Bardic Lyrics Bardon Lyrics Bardot Lyrics Bare Egil Band Lyrics Bare Jr. Lyrics Bare Naked Ladies Lyrics Barefoot Lyrics Barenaked Ladies Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
