lyrics

Keep to yourself all the money, so addicting
Labor to pay the price of your inflicting
Employment to decline "no money". so conflicting
The monument to all our sins, that you are building

"Trust in your savior, your king with a monocle
Net profits, the billions come saving the rest"
Starvation low wages, our praise to the oracle
For building their courtyards and gyms, just the best

You're liable
I'll tell you why
Profitable, a stupid lie
It's time to take the monocle, we don't want your genocide

So now that we've dealt with the problems that you're afflicting
Learn of our "saviors" death, the man of leading
Good riddance to all, and happy of sight
Perhaps gods perception, or karma of might
