Take a touch of murder and a third world frustration
Slip in trips of power bubblin' under every nation
Add a pinch of progress just to satisfy the diners
Whip it into fantasy to pacify the miners
Put in fancy parties with the politicians struttin'
Don't forget some bigwig falling face down on his bu*ton
Add a little panic and some noncommunication
Stir up the fanatics who are into confrontation
Coming down
To the time when we're not around
Can't you see
Gotta get straight or we're gonna fail
Hear that sound
Won't be long till we're outward bound
Makin' me
Drink international fear co*ktail
Drink international fear co*ktail
Take a sip of envy and a flavour of corruption
Mix it with resistance and the seeds of its destruction
Add a little damage just for calming down the farm brains
Whip it up with warnings of contaminated nuke trains
Put in sacrifices for the sake of some religion
With inflated prices, save us all from circumcision
Add airliners diving into radioactive oceans
Stir it in to terminate with everything you've broken
Coming down
To the time when we're not around
Can't you see
Gotta get straight or we're gonna fail
Hear that sound
Won't be long till we're outward bound
Makin' me
Drink international fear co*ktail
Drink international fear co*ktail
