Praise to the Sinners Lyrics by Choking Victim

No Gods / No Managers

1999

[Intro: Michael Parenti]
"What's the purpose of it?
Capitalism would not collapse
If Grenada remained revolutionary
And Reagan was right:
It wasn't a matter of direct resources
That you needed from that country
He said, 'Nutmeg is not the question'
I mean, that was Grenada's biggest export
We could get perfectly good nutmeg from Africa
You don't need Grenada's nutmeg
So, why did they invade Grenada?
They invaded Grenada because
They were serving notice
To the people of the Caribbean
And to the people of Latin America
And to the people of the world
That you cannot drop out of your
Client-state, free-market system
That if you try to take an independent source
And that if you use your land, your labor, your resources
And your capital, and your markets in a different way
In a collectivist way, if you use them
To benefit the needs of your people
Rather than to be milked like a cow for foreign investors
If you do that, this is what's going to happen to you"
[Spanish guitar interlude]
[Verse]
The sinner bows at the feet of the dead
No souls to save
Just hope for an early grave
