Greedy Bastards Songtext
von Motörhead

You′ve never seen a politician who kept his promise
You never saw a politician who wasn't a liar
Not even the greedy ones
It′s all bullshit man, it's all control
They want you to do what they say because their word is better than that other guy
Right? and it's not, you should be sufficient in yourself

You should do the best you can do
You should make the world a better place for having been in it
Yeah, not suck from it, you should make it better
You should give to it
All politics are assholes

Don′t ask me how I feel today
I only want to get away
I don′t understand the words
You want to hear me say


I don't believe there′s anyone
On earth to stop us going wrong
Don't ask why I like silence
I′ll shake you to the bone
Shake you to the bone

The way we treat the world we have, is criminal and cruel
We steal the air we breathe and that ain't cool
You really want to see your kids, choking in the air
Greedy bastards, you don′t even care

You better look around you
Something's in the wind
It's not quite Armageddon
But it′s the next best thing
Do you think it′s paranoia?
Maybe you should call your lawyer
Don't think you′re gonna be safe here

When the world breaks in
When the world breaks in

Same people every time around will send you to your death
They only want to keep you in their debt
Do you want your children wearing gas masks in their schools?
Greedy bastards, make 'em break the rules
Break the rules, hey


In the seats of power the old men sit and talk
Vote against them, then you get to walk
The secrets within secrets are being hid away
Greedy bastards, like to make them pay
Bastards
