Текст песни: The Bottom Line + перевод

Coming out of the womb the world feels like a tomb

We抮e heavily indebted

From the cradle to the grave, we抮e always slaves

Always tugging at credit

See the misery and the poverty

And how they exacerbate it

While we抮e breakin? our backs tryin? to pay back

Loans made to dictators

And I don抰 know why we sacrifice our children

But it follows from your premises

They抮e just dollars and cents, they抮e just resources to expend

Somewhere there抯 a bottom line more important than yours

The financial vultures have built a culture

That pits us against our brothers

And we抣l always bleed as long as greed

Can hide under freedom抯 cover

Their debt relief抯 a source of constant grief

To those who bear it抯 burden

While the money flows North more than back and forth

From the coffers of free trade抯 servants

Little girl born in a cemetary

All around her is dead and buried

Born into a world devoid of hope

Little girl born in a cemetary

Knowing nothing of the burden she抣l carry

Your accounting owes her more than this
