By building up the means for war, we thus preserve the peace   Such bullshit will prepare us for invasion from the east   And meanwhile, they're carving up the land   The anglo-american military have taken full command   It's keeping us fed we're consuming it all   Fat on its culture and military control   Preparing for war bit by bit   Whilst we're watching its telly and eating its shit   They've got it all worked out and we give our consent   They've got it all worked out and we give our consent   They've got it all worked out and we give our consent   They've got it all worked out for Central America   They've got it all worked out for Ireland   By sitting back and keeping silent we give them our consent   Born in the shadow of the USA   Taught the fundamental bullshit every day   Force fed on a diet of Great British lies   Media distortions censor our minds   Passive spectators of royalty   Too diverted to care if we're free   ICI, BP, Thorn EMI   Red, white, and blue logos, British pride   With a Big Mac in one hand and a Coke at our sides   We've accepted their culture and swallowed their lies   They've put up more fences, watched us and spied   And cleverly told us they've got nothing to hide   For too long we've watched them preparing for battle   But the fightback is started little by little   Kicking at the midst of passive defense   Refusing cruise means tearing down fences   At Greenham and Molesworth, fences you can see   But then there's all the barriers that are built around me   Political, economic, cultural, social   And people who live in glass houses   Shouldn't encourage others to throw stones   Let the glossy shop fronts know what to expect   And colonel Sanders, you're next
