World in Their Pocket

They've got the world in their pocket, Pocket, pocket, pocket
They've got the world in their pocket
Anand theyre up there in contro-o-ol
They've got the world in their pocket,
They can shake it, they can rock it
They can kick it for a goal
They've got the world in their pocket,
But their pocket's got a hole.

There's inflation and pollution;
Everything's been bought on credit
In this rotten institution,
And they waste the gentle people
'Cause the system has no soul,
They've got the world in their pocket,
But their pocket's got a hole.

Unemployment is their glory
If a million children starve
Why that's an old familiar story;
And there's rage and there's rebellion
And there's grief from pole to pole
They've got the world in their pocket,
But their pocket's got a hole.

Takes a war to keep them parking,
and they have to bleed the world
To keep their bloody system working
But the system's self distructing
While they play that gangster role,
They've got the world in their pocket,
But their pocket's got a hole.
