lyrics

The Great Wall of Europe
they steal our diamonds, they steal our oil, they steal our gas, they steal our trees
they bribe governments, they force our kids to slave in sweatshop factories
they steal our minerals, they steal our metal, they steal our fish, they steal our animals
they steal our land, they destroy our homes, they divide families, separates relatives
they hire war lords to pave the way for the companies, killing and raping
kidnapping kids, burning down villages, shooting cattle, poisoning fields

ch:
the great wall, the great wall, the great wall of europe x2

they’re trying to keep us out, trying to kick us out, they wanna lock us up, and send us back
they blame us for everything’s gone wrong, they say were the reason for welfare cut back
well, we work night and day on jobs no-one wants, no rights, no safety, starvation wages
and the wall that’s built, to protect the empire, its wealth, is getting higher and higher
they’re passing more and more anti-immigration laws, hiring more and more to the immigration service
the amount spent on worker safety is just a fraction of what’s spent on their immigration policy

ch:

they’re supplying weapons and information keeping dictators in power for their own means
profit before human rights, profit before liberal democracy

standing on the outside, looking up, at the great wall, at the great wall x4

ch:
