lyrics

buying and selling guns for each and every occasion
no matter if the trading partner is a terrorist or western nation
weapons are big business and they're really paying off
one trillion dollars - what else can we spend it for?

peace is bad - bad for business
trading death keeps us alive
use your head - why build wells if we can buy guns instead

it seems to be a great talent of our civilisation
to solve our problems in a fight and not in a conversation
so it shouldn't be surprising that we spend our money on guns
one trillion dollars - what else can we spend it for?

we need eighteen days to spend the same amount on guns
that we spend in one year in the fight against aids
we could end poverty by now
we could end famines by now
we can end poverty by now
we can end famines by now
weapons are big business an they're really paying off
one trillion dollars - what else can we spend it for?
