Bread & Water Farm Warfare
American agricultural capitalist elite
Producing our vegetables and cattle for meat
Sixty thousand acres of land for one farm
And government subsidies when crops come to harm
Production in volume to drive small farmers out
By genetically altering the seeds they plant
Changing genes in the seeds to kill other crops
And the top-secret super farms are protected by cops
Farm warfare
Government seizure of once public land
From Mexican peasants who would farm it by hand
Who now work for factories representing the state?
Who force them to work in conditions they hate
Produce goods for export, not food to consume
Leading the country to economic doom
The same factories are polluting the soil
While NAFTA helps Americans and the Mexicans toil
Farm warfare
