For the Soldiers of Fortune Fighting Freedom
Attention
Captains of Industry
Chief Executive Officers
of the hostile corporate
takeover of the world
Attention General
Motors; Attention Major Shareholders
The collateral damage is out of control
Your evangelical
zeal for more profits
is like the blind
leading the stupid to No Man's Land
They've all bought
private property hook line and sinker
and all you've got
to show them is a line in the sand
You keep chanting
your mantras
Free trade
Globalization
You've made the
marketplace a temple
the temple a mall
Your mixed up trickle
down insane ideology
is the most sinister
fundamentalist religion of them all
True believers in
the almighty power of money
You preach to the rank and file devotees
a holy war for the soldiers of fortune
who worship the
false prophets of your global economy
And now the International
Monetary Fundamentalism
of your World Trade
Organization Church of Greed
is selling the moneychangers indulgences
while the ignorant armies rage and bleed
