Great song!
my interpretations
the first verse is about the imperialism in africa "White man went to Africa with rifles and bibles" and then returning and giving africans AIDS virus, and americanizing products "They give us Pepsi, cack or Coca Cola so we settle"
the chorus is all the things the white man brought to africa
religion, weapons, terrorism, drugs, disease, making the africans into slaves, lies, the women of the dead miners and most stressed AIDS
second verse refers to Live Aid "You get some shite white rock bands, With trite white wristbands"
and how the chump change isnt helping "You can't rub pennies in a wound and expect it to be fine"
im guessing the part about the diamonds is referring to blood diamonds
third verse refers to Margret Thatcher the once prime minister of Britain during the 80's, and i believe how it shows the flaws in religion such as just because your gay, of a different religion, species, or an unbabtised baby{not sure about miner in a hole could be meaning a prostitute or again the blood diamond miners in africa not sure} your not going to heaven "That the Skygod wants to kill you if you're queer, Or If you're a Jew or you're an Arab, A miner in a hole, Or if you are a dog because you haven't got a soul, Or if you are a dead baby" parents who put their kids on Ridalin {a drug to calm, used mainly for people who have ADD or ADHD} are doing a horrible thing because they are not letting the children be themselves and calming the children to help themselves and that nobody has died from either disorder its just a personality trait, no matter who you are your not more important then ANY other human {whether from a different country, race, creed, gender, sexual orientation, or ocupation}"I can say this cos I'm sure - You Aint Shit"
