We Are Hungry Men [Bowie]

Here is the news
According to the latest world population survey
Figures have reached danger point, my God

London, fifteen million, seventy-five thousand
New York, eighty million
Paris, fifteen million and thirty
China, one thousand million
Billington-Spa, lots

My studies included suffragy
I formed my own society
To crush the power of fecundity
The world will over-populate
Unless you claim infertility

So who will buy a drink for me, your messiah?

We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives

I propose to give the pill
Free of charge to those that feel 
That they are not infertible
The crops are few, the cattle gun
There's only one way to linger on

So who will buy a drink for me, your messiah?

We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives

Achtung, achtung
These are your orders

Anyone found guilty of consuming
More than their allotted amount of air
Will be slaughtered and cremated

I've prepared a document
Legalising mass abortion
We will turn a blind eye to infanticide

We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives

You don't seem to hear me clear
Do I talk above your sphere?
Let me explain my project, dear
Show you how I'll save the world 
Or let it die within the year

Why do you look that way at me, your messiah?

We are not your friends
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to live our lives

We are hungry men
We don't give a damn for what you're saying
We're here to eat you
