[Jan - Sept 2012, v1.11]

We used to rule the world
call an empire our own
now in the morning markets open
[to] trade the future until it's broken

We used to be the guide
industrial revolution full of pride
finance now is all we have
making us the 51st state of the US 

One minute we raise a loan
next stop debt trap danger zone 
and we discovered that we all depend
upon leverage of oil and leverage of gold

Bank of England's just printing money
soon it's gonna get really funny                      
no proper industry to defend us
just high finance here to suspend us

For some reasons we can't explain
lobbyism's our sovereign reign
credit with unbacked quid
it is funny it used to work

Repoed portfolios and derivatives
are banksters' top initiatives
fiat is not but a failed car brand 
it's quite the beginning of the end

Revolutionaries wait
for Exter pyramid's increasing weight
cartel banksters not shy to rig
precious metals on any uptick

Paper paradigm is collapsing
sheeple savers in for a waxing
compound interest to suck us dry
welfare and peace to say goodbye

For some reasons we can't explain
lobbyism's our sovereign reign
credit with unbacked quid
it is funny it used to work

Bank of England's just printing money
soon it's gonna get really funny                      
No proper industry to defend us
just high finance here to suspend us
