We Boast the Largest War Machine in the World
We boast the largest war machine in the world:
Our long-range bombers dominate the skies
Our battle fleets roam all the planet’s seas
Our soldiers’ boots tread on God’s ancient lands
We boast the largest cash machine in the world:
Our bold young technonaires build palaces
Industrialists buy ever-larger yachts
Prelates fly first-class and enrich themselves
While disdained armies of our desperate poor
Sleep in the streets of our City on a Hill
