Chaos once again descends, the war of all against all From inequality to social unrest, you fend for yourself Father come and save us, your children are hungry and cold Man, we've been in time-out a lot, but brand new toys are coming soon
We're backward but luckily we know the way out Got Papa Joe to show me the way We know who to blame for all our pain and poverty An enemy to justify increasing suffering
Tyrant savior, the blind will lead the blind Father killed himself but the economy was homicide Trotsky or Khodorkovsky the trend remains Lock up the economy in autocratic chains Stagnation ends with an 'n' but in Ghana that's where it began Isolation, domination the cry for justice is back again
Alone and weak in the sea While sharks swim below We stand by and watch the sea turn red It's in our interest to act, while we still have a chance To save the hopeless masses from the jaws of death
Hegemon must rise
Supremacy once again ascends, at the expense of the weak Exploiters only think of cutting the cost, as in the days of old It's a race to the bottom, a race that no one wins Comparative advantage comes at a price, we reap the dividends of misery
We suffer, but luckily there's a way to fight back It's crude, but it just might work The victims of the war between the great economies, The corpses of the poor lie rotting on the battlefield

There's no mercy for the weak, they cant develop on their own, take out a loan, and give Up sovereignty Work and hope you get out of poverty, work and hope you get out of poverty Shit, the Thais are tied and you're fucked Band together to fight the oppressors, band together to fight the oppressors Stabbed in the back, the war drags on
And when elephants fight The grass pays the price We stand by and watch the suicide It's in our interest to act While we still have a chance to save the hopeless masses from the jaws of death
