Chumbawamba Pictures Of Starving Children Sell Records How To Get Your Band On Television Product sells, People die Same manipulation wrapped in lies Give a little money and play your rock and roll The biggest prizes to the biggest fools In keeping with the fashion for charity, not change Here's our contribution: we've called it Slag Aid For every pop star that we slag off today A million pounds will be given away! Paul McCarney - Come on Down! With crocodile tears to irrigate this ground Make of Ethiopia a fertile paradise Where everyone sings Beatles songs and buys shares in EMI Freddie Mercury - This is Your Life! Thank the Lord that you were born white And thank apartheid for this wonderful opportunity To peddle your hypocrisy in Sun City David Bowie - The Price is Right! A suitful of compassion and a gobful of shite Still the voices of those who doubt Coca-Cola for the peasants to end this drought Jagger and Richards - Game for a Laugh! Dancing us down the garden path To a place where money grows on trees Where cocaine habits are financed by hunger and disease Ask the puppet-masters who pull the strings "Who makes the money when the puppets sing?" Ask the corporations "Where does the money go?" Ask the empty bellied children "What are we singing for?" A Cliff Richard - 3,2,1! The God who remains when the religion's gone Cliff, we've got a special surprise for you today So come closer, step this way Cliff, you're such an example of moral worth Such a purist saint come to bless our Earth That on behalf of our viewers watching telly And on behalf of the millions with empty bellies We're donating something special that we're all going to like: Cliff Richard, we're going to nail you up to a cross tonight!! I know there must be more Than giving just a little bit more When half of this world is so helplessly poor Starved of a real solution - Only charity and tradition And the cycle of hungry children Will keep on going round... |
