In arm sales
there’s few prophets
they were shot and killed
its all about those margins
and profits to blood spilled
jobs for the boys
and exports
politicians do
what the banksters want of them
the clueless take the view
both sides need supporting
the transgression that is there
atonement no one’s looking
its all about despair
the good man and the bad man
the culpability
in every way its wickedness
its immorality
people seem impartial
not involved let’s say
its just about the figures
and what you sell each day
jobs, statistics figures
condemn us if you will
don’t say that its unpardonable
and disregard the skill
all that negotiation
and no matter who wins
arms sales draw conclusions
and forget about the sins
