If you're under water one morning, don't blame it on global warming,
The hole in the sky is just a lie...icebergs are actually forming!
Pumping oil is green, that's how we want it seen,
So I've changed my rules, to teach your schools a corporate American dream.
Globalisation, it`s a pirate's life for me,
We're fighting over each other for your dependency,
And as long as you go to war, whenever we want you to
You`ll have a tank full of petrol every morning.
I say I say I say, "How many Indonesians does it take to make a pair of trainers?"
"Who cares?"
Now the workers of the western world are such a fussy bunch,
Demanding such conditions as holiday, pay and lunch,
So the strategy we plotted to foil the workers' plan
Is to close down all the factories here and build them in Taiwan.
Globalisation, it`s a pirate's life for me,
We're fighting over each other for your dependency,
And as long as you go to war, whenever we want you to
You`ll have a tank full of petrol every morning.
"Global warming ahoy!"
"Roll out the cannons!!"
"We sold the cannons!"
"Who too?"
"Who cares, we made a killing!!!"
Convenience is 8 till late, we've salad all year round,
The lorries comes from Africa with lettuce by the pound,
The pipeline feeds the lorry, and the lettuce feeds your health,
And everyone is happy as I globalise my self.
Globalisation, it`s a pirate's life for me,
We're fighting over each other for your dependency,
And as long as you go to war, whenever we want you to
You`ll have a tank full of petrol every morning.
"Free trade on the Horizon captain!"
"Foist the sales!!"
"The fore sails or January sales?"
"Its ALL for sale!!!"
Now everyone has to eat and food has got to be cheap,
The future of food is GM crops from Asia,
Your local farmer may be hanging, but that won't stop me banging,
On about how Globalisation's good for me...
It's good for me (it's good for him), it's good for me, (it's good for him),
Oh yes it's bloody well good for me, (it's good for you).
Your local farmer may be hanging but that won`t stop me banging
On about how Globalisation's good for me.
We`re the brokers and the dealers, the planetary peelers,
The apple of our triangular eye.
The fate of planets lie before us,
Don`t think you can ignore us, just, join in with my Chorus or you`ll die.
