about

Der Song «Economic Hitman» basiert auf einem Interview mit John Perkins in dem Film ‘Let´s make money’ von Erwin Wagenhofer. Perkins bekennt sich dazu, als früherer Chefökonom der Strategieberatung Chas. T. Main Agent der US-amerikanischen National Security Agency (NSA) gewesen zu sein. Nach seiner Darstellung war er ein „Economic Hit Man“.

lyrics

i'm an economic hitman
like a hitman that works for the mafia
but on a much larger scale
let's say i pick a country
with resources for our companies
like oil

we arrange a huge loan
from the world bank or its sister companies
but the money never reaches the country
cause instead it goes to our companies
to build infrastructure there that no one needs
to the benefits of a small elite
but it never helps the majority

when a hitman fails
they send agents in to kill the presidents
let their airplanes crash, to turn 'round the events
and if that won't work they send the army in
find atomic weapons or another sin
and then soon they send the cooperations in
all the same outcome, just a darker spin

in a world like this
who needs theories of odd conspiracies
it comes all on a silver plate
you just need journalists
and financiers without interests
and leaks
