The Great Wall Lyrics

It's so big it's seen from outer space

Put there to keep starving neighbors

Locked outside the gates

What's changed today?

Empires hoard more than they need

And peasants threaten our comfort

We'll build a Great Wall around our power

Build a Great Wall around our power

Bankrupt L.A.'s streetcar line

So people pay more to drive

Plant strategic freeways

To divide neighborhoods by color lines

We'd rather pay for riot squads

Than pump your ghetto back to life

We let your schools decay on purpose

To build a Great Wall around our power

Another Great Wall around our power

Warlords in grey suits

Take a different route to work each day

Second-hand green berets

Form the companies' private armies.Dead Kennedys - The Great Wall - http://motolyrics.com/dead-kennedys/the-great-wall-lyrics.html

We'll take all your gold

But won't teach reading or feed your poor

The League of Gentleman

Would rather feed guns to puppet dictators

There's too many people in your world

And refugees are expensive

When they trickled down onto our soil

We hunt them and arrest them

Classify them insane

And put them back on the next plane

To the waiting arms

Of the same death squads they fled

We've built a Great Wall around our power

Economic Great Wall around our power

Worldwide Great Wall around our power

Give us your poor,

Your tired and your weak

We'll send 'em right back

To their certain death
