Do jobless beg? Did workers strike today?
The hardened steal, ignoring hell to pay? Unrest when cash crop export sales are slow? Inflation soars because supply is low Demand is high, above this angry mood Do you build yachts while others have no food? Why make things that you do not use? Let's rise and sing, "Resist! Revolt! Refuse!" |

Economists are turning wheat to lead
Your analysts can keep themselves well fed Your bankers funding gold and silver mines The mansion building stopped by picket lines The tower high above this angry mood Do you kiss ass while others have no food? Why make things that you do not use? Let's rise and sing, "Resist! Revolt! Refuse!" |

The pyramid scheme sends your stock up high
So buy your limos, watch the wretched cry Did everyone withdraw their cash today? Your banks collapse, now what have you to say? You loan your loans beneath that angry mood As butlers bow while others have no food Why make things that you do not use? Let's rise and sing, "Resist! Revolt! Refuse!" |

I pay my kids so they can buy from me
Now washing dishes will raise the GDP Do you proclaim a false prosperity? I own the network news so I decree: "It's only losers in an angry mood I pay the opera, I need no more food" Who gets the things that you do not use? Let's rise and sing, "Resist! Revolt! Refuse!" |
