Pulling the Strings Songtext

von Satanic Surfers

Yet another big company gets away dodging taxes and our elected government puts on the blindfold
Cause they know that if they're audited the firms will relocate abroad for lower costs and cheaper labor

So I guess that says a lot about who really pulls the strings and who the puppets are
Who the puppets are

In probably all industrial nations they're sitting behind the curtains, invisibly in the background, where most of us don't recognize them and therefore can't resist their influence
(Probably all)

Now they force us to believe
(Force us to believe)
That these products are essential
Something, we really need it, they sell us what we're told we need and with smiles on our faces we rush out to buy, thinking this is life, this is freedom of choice

So I guess this says a lot about who really pulls the strings and who the puppets are
Who the puppets are

In probably all industrial nations they're sitting behind the curtains, invisibly in the background, where most of us don't recognize them and therefore can't resist their influence
(Probably all)

No, they don't erect monuments in the names of factory workers, to the memory of those who die a little every morning getting up at 4 o'clock
