What’s the Difference?

Lyrics

The constitution crumbles beneath the weight of fascists No right to assemble - no free speech for the masses Seattle '99 the mayors decree Anti-W. T. O. Statements are grounds for arresting! [Chorus:] Our leaders decry Tianamen And dare to speak of freedom As they unleash our cops on us So... what's... the fuckin' difference? [Bridge:] Behind locked doors in session World-sponsored corporate politicians Structure policy to build more corporate strength (Fight strength with strength) At news conferences they claim, "we listen" While they lock out their own constituents So we march on to raise our voice Because we are left with no choice! In China, Nike pays workers fifty cents a day In the U.S., lawmakers give China "free trade" Human rights-based sanctions just washed away When our lawmakers are owned by multinational's money [Chorus x2]
