Now they drive us down the road of pain,
the people of Italy, Portugal, Spain.
Just as they do it with the people of Greece
they downgrade us to favor the rich.
A war rages between politos and bankas
for power over us, the people.
The bankas now win almost every day
and drive us down the poverty way.
People wake up! People stand up!
The people know what the people need!
The people can set the people free!
The people, you know, the people are we!
Banka speculators want our tax money
to become bail out funds for them,
want control over us, the only real value,
by turning us into cheap and mindless slaves.
Politos are there to help the people,
not to join the banka-gansta-gang.
Politos must change the financial game,
put right what went wrong for a happy end.
People wake up! People stand up!
The people know what the people need!
The people can set the people free!
The people, you know, the people are we!
People wake up! People stand up!
The people know what the people need!
The people can set the people free!
The people, you know, the people are we!
