“Call it Democracy“ is perhaps the only song ever written about the International Monetary Fund, which Cockburn accuses of fostering “insupportable debt“ in Third World countries. Typically not pulling any punches, Cockburn charges that the IMF doesn't “really give a flying fuck about the people in misery.“ Padded with power here they come International loan sharks backed by the guns Of market hungry military profiteers Whose word is a swamp and whose brow is smeared With the blood of the poor Who rob life of its quality Who render rage a necessity By turning countries into labour camps Modern slavers in drag as champions of freedom
