A Risk To Your Health

We’ll sell you our pills – We send you our bills
You better have paid – Before it’s too late

Better make up your will – You’re the next one we kill
We really don’t care – You know, life isn’t fair

refr.
Capitalism, it’s a risk to your health
Profit prevails, profit is wealth
Pharmaceutical companies rule
Keeping the lid on the cure

We’ll treat you like pest – We’ll lay you to rest
Doctors ‘nd pharmacies – Will make you apologies

It is rich folk, my friend – That have plenty to spend
The fittest survive – Yeah, you gotta earn your life

refr.

Insurers decide – Your claim is denied
If you’re in poverty – There’s no need for pity

Let the wretched die – Let the crippled cry
Let’s get rid of the elderly – It’s so good for the economy!

refr.
