Slash And Burn lyrics by 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
That's how they feed the world

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
