The Coldest War Lyrics

People say it's peace time

We're looking towards the sun

We're destroying tanks and bombs

No more threatening "Red scum"

The Arabs? They've been silenced

And the oil is running free

So don't worry about your future

They've made it safe for you and me

But can you fill up your car and turn up your heat

Knowing your tank is filled with the blood of a terror democracy?

How about the puppets we put in power in South America?

To make sure we'd have no problems, unfriendly neighbors are such a

bother

International corporations cannot come and reap the harvest

If the people are in power they'd realize just why they're starving

There is a war going on in your town, it's right outside your door

Welfare? Ha! That's a fucking laugh

It's government candy, it's poverty's crack

For some there's no such thing as peace

Economic wars have gone on for centuries

The police? They're an army. An army built for you.

And the CIA and FBI don't have to follow rules

Filter drugs down from the heavens, and guns a blaze tonight

You only feed into their hands when you kill off your own kind

Well there's a weapon that they have that's more cruel than the bomb

'Cause you die off very slowly thinking YOU create the harm

It's a weapon they call welfare and it's something many want

And they're willing to give it out because it keeps you in the dark

Why kill you? You're a bother, but no one would stand for that

When we can put you in a ghetto style concentration camp

What better way to keep a list of everyone that's poor

Than to set up a program that keeps you coming back for more

Oh to live inside of your world must be such a fucking dream

Not to worry day to day about your fellow human beings

IF YOU NEED A CANE TO WALK, YOU'D GET NOWHERE WITHOUT IT.

IF YOU NEED A GOVERNMENT TO LIVE THEY'VE GOT YOU WHERE THEY WANT

YOU.
