Jarvis Cocker – Running the World

Well did you hear, there’s a natural order.
Those most deserving will end up with the most.
That the cream cannot help but always rise up to the top,
Well I say: Shit floats.
If you thought things had changed,
Friend, you’d better think again.
Bluntly put in the fewest of words:
Cunts are still running the world.

Now the working classes are obsolete.
They are surplus to societies needs,
So let ‘em all kill each other –
And get it made overseas.
That’s the word don’t you know,
From the guys thats running the show,
Lets be perfectly clear boys and girls:
Cunts are still running the world.

Oh feed your children on Cray fish and Lobster tails,
Find a school near the top of the league…
In theory I respect your right to exist,
I will kill ya if you move in next to me.
Ah it stinks, it sucks, it’s anthropologically unjust,
But the takings are up by a third, Oh So
Cunts are still running the world.

Your free market is perfectly natural,
Or do you think that I’m some kind of dummy?
It’s the ideal way to order the world!
Fuck the morals, does it make any money?
And if you don’t like it? Then leave.
Or use your right to protest on the street,
Yeah, use your rights but don’t imagine that it’s heard, Oh no no,
Cunts are still running the world.
