We talk of "one world"
while people starve in the Third
We talk of freedom
And hold on to the key
Yet knowing this society's democracy
is no more than a regime.
The only thing we ever learn from history
is that we are doomed to repeat it
Statistics for ballistics
because this is development
How developed do you have to be
before you are developed?

This lyric should have actually said "because we do not learn from history we are doomed to repeat it"
