Lyrics
World peace is none of your business you must not tamper with arrangements work hard and sweetly pay your taxes never asking "what for?" ooh you poor little fool oh you fool world peace is none of your business police will stun you with their stun-guns or they’ll disable you with tasers that’s what government's for ooh you poor little fool oh you fool world peace is none of your business so would you kindly keep your nose out the rich must profit and get richer and the poor must stay poor ooh you poor little fool oh you fool
each time you vote you support the process each time you vote you support the process each time you vote you support the process Brazil and Bahrain Egypt, Ukraine so many people in pain
No more "you poor little fool" no more "you fool."
