Know Thyself
Civilisation is now up with arms
The multinationals will reach every remote corner
Soaps and toothpastes and cold drinks
Must be sold among the eskimos and pigmies
and the Jarowas
Everyone must share the fruits of development
And technology
Those who refuse to share our wealth are damned
And must be eliminated from the world
The hermit's cloister has been shattered
We are out to deforest
So that rattle snakes and tigers and hermits
Become the things of the past
Thank you the architects of the modern world
