Oil Lyrics & Chords By Asian Dub Foundation

How did we get to this lord? How did we get to this? How did we get to this lord?
How did we get to this? How did we get to this lord?
How did we get to this? How did we get to this lord? How did we get to this?
We want your oil We want your oil
The villages are mined the contract's been signed
We'll tell you one more time WE WANT YOUR OIL
Supply no longer guaranteed we demand security
Running out of Texas tea WE WANT YOUR OIL
Children of the CIA we want somewhere new to play
Better get right out the way WE WANT YOUR OIL
Civilisation birth nerve centre of the earth
Welcome to our new turf WE WANT YOUR OIL
How did we get to this lord? How did we get to this?
How did we get to this lord? How did we get to this?
Smart bomb with more brains than the President
Slipping and bleeping as they target residents
Of market squares and hospital wards King rat is safe in the wings of the hawk
While King rat is safe in the wings of the hawk
Watch me now
Beat seeking missile gonna blast yer mind out
Bomb for peace i'm gonna burn your eyes out
I'm covering my ears don't wanna receive it
I'm trembling in fear say me can't believe it
Inspector defector arms dealer revealer
Document leaker over here Mr. Speaker
A spin refugee like Mohammed Ali
Me say no Iraqi ever called me Paki
How did we get to this lord? How did we get to this?
A secret never to be told always to be sold
Digging out the Black gold WE WANT YOUR OIL
Petro -junkies must be fed Going Barefoot in the head
It's S. U. V.'s with warheads WE WANT YOUR OIL
tearing up formalities there is no neutrality
Welcome to reality WE WANT YOUR OIL
Ignore treaties line by line Little countries fall behind
The lunatics will lead the blind WE WANT YOUR OIL
The lunatics will lead the blind How did we get to this lord?
How did we get to this? How did we get to this lord?
How did we get to this?
