歌曲歌詞
Today the Colour Line/Is the Power Line/Is the Poverty Line
Racism and imperialism work in tandem
And poverty is their handmaiden
Those who are poor and powerless to break out of their poverty
Are also those who by and large are non-white non-western third world
Poverty and powerlessness are interwined in colour in race
Discrimination and exploitation feed into each other today
Under global capitalism
We are back to primitive accumulation - plunder on a world scale
Only this time the pillage is accompanied by aid sustained by expert
Advice and underpinned by programmes and policies that perpetuate dependency
The IMF The World Bank Structural Adjustment Programmes
General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade - GATT
Are just a few of the organisations schemes projects
Which under the guise of developing the third world plunder it
Trade agreements and commodity price-fixing patents and
Intellectual property rights
They lock them into paralytic dependency
There's no such thing as illegal immigrants only illegal
Governments
Black is not just the colour of our skins
It's the colour of our politics
There's no such thing as illegal immigrants only illegal
Governments
Today the colour line/is the power line/is the poverty line
