lyrics

Stateless people, stateless money, stateless information
Stateless highways and byways passing through the barb-wire fencing
The world is now awoken unto new imaginations
If our gods fall with our states, then what was our religion?
Yes, if our gods fall with our states, then what was our religion?
But with eyes of stone we pick up the phone and say

“Bulldoze the Global Village boys”

So who then is the guarantor now of the stateless human?
And under which law is it, now, that we should deal with you then?
You who ’scaped the world we poisoned out beyond the margins
You who ‘scaped the world they blew apart with bombs we sold them
You who braved the lawless in-between world of Poseidon
You who live among us now as future among the present? Hell no…

“Bulldoze the Global Village boys”

So what now when all tribes and tongues do gather on our borders?
So what now when this song of praise is sung in many colours?
So what now of the corrugated towns stood here before us?
So what now with this interruption in our fragile nomos?
Shall we grant this city to be realised among us?
But with hearts of stone we pick up the phone and say

“Bulldoze the Global Village boys”
