You can't believe the things you see and read
The Soviet threat
Our pseudo enemy
What's scaring me?
Our foreign policy
To make the world safe for business
Call it democracy
Our human nature, it's all the same
We spend our lives in the pursuit of happiness
So stop the hate, open the iron gate
It's our destiny to make the cold war history
You think I give a shit
If you're a socialist
If you're a capitalist
We've all got to exist
On this planet with nowhere to run
The millions of brainwashed must open their eyes
We are one
With us over here and them over there
Barbed wire borders are going nowhere
The Soviet threat
Our pseudo enemy
What's scaring me?
Our foreign policy
To make the world safe for business
Call it democracy
We spend our lives in the pursuit of happiness
So stop the hate, open the iron gate
It's our destiny to make the cold war history
If you're a socialist
If you're a capitalist
We've all got to exist
On this planet with nowhere to run
The millions of brainwashed must open their eyes
We are one
Barbed wire borders are going nowhere

This song is about the cold war.
"The Soviet threat" "It's our destiny to make the cold war history" I think I proved my point.

yeah, but also its about how it was a ploy by the gov to unite the people against a pseudo enemy, Soviet Union, and how all it does is put up walls and divide people further, when everyone basically wants the same basic things. wonderful song against the cold war
