Philosophy is Useless


‘they wanna have a war to keep us on our knees

they wanna have a war to keep their factories

they wanna have a war to stop us buying Japanese

they wanna have a war to stop Industrial Disease

they’re pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind

they wanna sap your energy incarcerate your mind

they give you Rule Brittania, gassy beer, page three

two weeks in Espana and Sunday striptease’

Industrial Disease from Love Over Gold by Dire Straits.
