Recorded in Brixton, London during the 7/7 terrorist attacks...
lyrics
I do my business well
With oil & my citadels
My cup is overflowing now
As business booms with poisoned wells
I've never worn that shade of green
It doesn't go with red it seems
But I take my time with my war crimes
I take my time with my war crimes
As Nero watched his city burn
He didn't play the saxophone
The cat-gut strings on a crooked bow
As chaos swamped the town below
His Empire in a downward slide
A soldier with a stingin' pride
But I take my time with my War Crimes
I take my time with my War Crimes
But these days it's not a crime
These days it's not a crime
These days it's not a crime
These days it's not a crime
My conscience is a mute
I give a Fifteen gun Salute!
I give Fifteen gun Salute
But I take my time...
I take my time
But I take my time with my War Crimes
I take my time with my War Crimes
