Running the World

Did you hear? There's a natural order

Those most deserving will end up with the most

That the cream cannot help

But always rise up to the top

Well I say, "Sh*t floats"

If you thought things had changed

Friend, you'd better think again

Bluntly put, in the fewest of words

***** are still running the world

***** are still running the world

Oh yeah

Now the working classes are obsolete

They are surplus to society's needs

So let 'em all kill each other

And get it made overseas

That's the word, don't you know

From the guys that's running the show

So let's be perfectly clear boys and girls

***** are still running the world

***** are still running the world

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Feed your children on crayfish and lobster tails

Find a school near the top of the league

In theory I respect your right to exist

I will kill you if you move in next to me

And it stinks, yeah it sucks

It's anthropologically unjust

But the takings are up by a third, so

***** are still running the world, yeah

***** are still running the world

Oh yeah

The free market is perfectly natural

Do you think that I'm some kind of dummy?

It's the ideal way to order the world

"F*ck the morals, does it make any money?"

If you don't like it, then leave

Or use your right to protest on the street

Yeah use that right

But don't imagine that it's heard

Not whilst ***** are still running the world

***** are still running the world

***** are still running the world

***** are still running the world, yeah
