You see the scum of the earth we live, now look to the waste
The third world, excluded from the planet and left to rot
We pity them, we praise our lottery's luck
But our capability to save them has been forcibly forgot
You see now, those political fools, those puppeteers
Perhaps in their evil they are not so queer
Has it ever crossed your mind why there is a first world and a third
Because the first world won long ago, and now change is absurd

The waste is overbrimming with debt
It cannot feed its children, oh so poor
Yet who does it owe the debt to, you ask
Why, the first world of course
The savages who sit controlling you while laughing
The monsters who crave power via suffering
The politicians who exercise the first world hypocrisy
So the question is: Are you okay with it?
