Hungry people don't stay hungry for long

They get hope from fire and smoke as they reach for the dawn



The spirit of Jackson

Now screams through the ruins

Through factory chains

And the ghosts of the union

The forgotten remains

Disappear to their new homes

The knife the thrust

The life burns to the raw bone

The blood on the floor of the tear is still dryin'

Cover the spread sheets

The Dow Jones skyin'

The cell block live stock

The bodies they buyin'

Old south order

New northern horizon



Violence in all hands

Embrace it if need bee

Livin' been warfare

I press it to CD



A fire in the master's house is set



Check the high tech terror

Of the new order athletes

Peering into the eyes of the child already on trial

These armies rippin' families apart

Get 'em on file

Convictions fit the stock profile

All the while films of dogs

Ripping skin from bones

Yes the new millennium homes

Privatizing through private eyes

An era rising

New northern horizon



Violence in all hands

Embrace it if need bee

Livin' been warfare

I press it to CD



A fire in the master's house is set
