lyrics

Capitalist cheerleaders (Fat gits in suits)

They meet in Melbourne, they meet in New York
They know what they’re doing, they do more than talk
Wealthy Elite Fraudsters, they’re slick and move fast
Profit comes first and other people come last

Capitalism works – don’t try to knock it
It works because the government’s in their pocket
They’ve got control of the money supply
But no politician is asking why
Chorus: Fat gits, fat gits, fat gits in suits
Don’t let your sisters near fat gits in suits (repeat)

Supporting ‘democracy’ is their stratagem
But when did we ever vote for them?
They pay the cops to keep us in line
They spell ‘success’ with a dollar sign

They trash your wages like never before
And wonder why they can’t make you spend more
They feed the workers into their machines
Business is war by another means
Chorus: Fat gits, fat gits, fat gits in suits
Don’t let your girlfriends near fat gits in suits (repeat)

They met in Gleneagles to carve up the turf
If you’re not one of them, you’re only a serf
They’re the cosa nostra and the cosa nova
They shoot you first and then run you over

They own the world and the company store
They don’t want a lot, they only want more
The boss has a car and a place to park it
But there’s not much freedom in the free market
Chorus: Fat gits, fat gits, fat gits in suits
Don’t let your mothers near fat gits in suits (repeat)

If you ask my opinion of their stewardship
I’ll drop my trousers, bend over and let rip
If we’re going to defeat their master plan
We need to eat the rich and burn the white man
Chorus: Fat gits, fat gits, fat gits in suits
Don’t let your brothers near fat gits in suits (repeat)
