Slash and Burn

Graham Parker

The world was stripped of beauty baby
By the working man
He was told it was his duty baby
Again and again and again

They took the slaves from Africa baby
Along with sugar sacks
To build the British Empire baby
And break everybody's back

Hey hey slash and burn
Hey hey slash and burn
Hey hey slash and burn
That's how they feed the world

They burned the mighty rain forest
The Howler Monkeys screamed
They turned it into burgers
For the monkeys on the street

The paths were forged with promise
Hung up like jewels and gold
While Atlas the Adonis
Was holding up the globe

Hey hey slash and burn
Hey hey slash and burn
Hey hey slash and burn
That's how they feed the world
That's how they feed the world

America is a car park
London is a dump
China's for the Chinese
Russia is for chumps

Criminals were elected
To divide the world
For every head a bullet
For every swine a pearl

Hey hey slash and burn
Hey hey slash and burn
Hey hey slash and burn
That's how they feed the world
