Capital (It Fails Us Now)
This is the story of my struggle
The moment I was born I opened my eyes
I reached out for my credit card
Oh no! I left it in my other suit
Capital it fails us now, comrades let us seize the time
On the first day of my life I opened my eyes
Guess where? It was in a superstore
Surrounded by luxury goods
I need a freezer, I need a hi-fi
No credit, no goods - call my bank, I say
They say we're bankrupt
Capital it fails us now, comrades let us seize the time
Capital it fails us now, scientist blame it on pollution
People are not happy
This is caused by alienation
Oh no! I left it in my other suit
One day old and I'm living on credit
Bankrupt! Still it's not my problem
I'm still in credit... just
One day old and I'm living on credit
