lyrics

WE RUN THE WORLD

We run the world
We shape the earth
You can’t even guess
How much we’re really worth
All of our crimes
Are plausibly denied
Our portfolios
Are so diversified
We’re selling short
The bubble won’t last long
We’re buying up your block
We even own this song
We run the world
We all grew up in Darien
But the plans we hatch
Are so Wagnerian
We run the world

Machines of war
Are now the cars we drive
The scarier things get
The more we seem to thrive
Miss Nipple Ring
Riding on the bus
Don’t kid yourself
Cause you’re one of us
When the bad men come
With their dirty bombs
Won’t distinguish you
From any soccer mom
We run the world
All the noise you make
Has been factored in
You’re plotted on our graphs
We’re very disciplined
We run the world

We put our name
On your stadiums
And no one finds
This troublesome
We’re leasing space
On poorer countries’ flags
We’ll rename your kid
Cause everything’s an ad
We run the world
