New World Order
Lyrics Well, you jeer at the notion of global loyalty And assert its inferiority to national sovereignty No, you don't trust the aspirations of the United Nations You claim its only application is to protect against an alien invasion Your nation state is the greatest idol in modern history Death and faith for your country is sacred loyalty Religious divinity But, your nation's purity is the simplest absurdity Nobody's hands are clean Yeah, your nation's purity is the simplest absurdity Nobody's hands are clean You missed the point, yes you missed the point, you missed the point, you missed the point Welcome to the new world order Somewhere in some far off land; it might just be right where you stand There's a madman in command slaughtering his opposition And police brutality in every demeaning position And, judges ruling in favor of every form of discrimination Do you get the point, Do you get the point, Do you get the point, Do you get the point? Welcome to the new world order And, there is women and children being raped and sold for debts and prostitution And, there's priests baptizing the credulous in rivers poisoned by pollution And, there is people starving in the face of greed; too weak to start a revolution Your nation's purity is the simplest absurdity Nobody's hands are clean Yeah, your nation's purity is the simplest absurdity Nobody's hands are clean Who is going to protect your human rights when your national government Has turned off lights? Who is going to protect your human rights when your national government Has turned out lights? So, tyrants please be aware You can't do what you want out there and hide behind national sovereignty The world's got an interest in what you do and an obligation to correct you To keep you in your boundaries and alleviate the world's anxieties There is a higher authority for every single nation As we improve our human relations Based on an expanding list of human rights
