War Incognito - Black Comedy

Machines produce the maximum

Increase spending to the unimaginable

To sustain weapons industry convince public of pre-emptive strategy

War tech lobbyist get their way, politicians aren’t too hard to sway

Military industrial complex — first war to be won is onthe state budget

All for industry

In heights or lows — we’ll sell to friend or foe

Distinct affair — corrupt elites will get their share

And you shall know us by the trail of war

One superpower accumulating more and more

And if other countries dare choose to protest

They’ll be facing the might of our trade sanctions next

Recall the day you pledged to serve the cause

Ethics, schmethics… this is the way of power politics

Politicians will always come and go

Make sure to reap the benefits

A war unjust, at least the threat is reduced to pay

All this worth the price, diplomacy neutralized

Propagate that we must keep on fighting for freedom

Who says democracy is made by the tip of the gun?

Ideal war

Ideal stance

Wave the flag, oil tainted

Blood-soaked soil in foreign lands

God bless the fortune of this land…
