KMFDM - Spit Or Swallow lyrics

What's so hard to understand?
Which part did you not get?
What exactly floats your boat?
Who do you abet?

Clinging to the status quo
Dispute state of affairs
Instead of ringing in the change
Content with splitting hairs

Better die on your feet than
Live on your knees
In the absence of justice there
Will be no peace

Spit or swallow pretend or commit
Lead or follow ideal or unfit
Spit or swallow palace or pit
Legionnaire or hypocrite

Hide behind your pious words
Lament your desperate state
Do you believe in action
Or play victim to your fate?

Better die on your feet than
Live on your knees
In the absence of justice there
Will be no peace

Spit or swallow deny or admit
Lead or follow arise or quit
Spit or swallow rebel or submit
Try or die trying swallow or spit

War is the rich man's terrorism
Terrorism is the poor man's war
War is the rich man's terrorism
Terrorism is the poor man's war

What am I supposed to make
Of people like you?
What you say is not enough it's what you do
Cowardly bewailing
Too frightened to stand tall
Play the hand you have been dealt
You've got no balls at all

Better die on your feet than
Live on your knees
In the absence of justice there
Will be no peace

Spit or swallow (Spit or swallow)
Rebel or submit (Rebel or submit)
Lead or follow (Lead or follow)
Swallow or spit (Swallow or spit)
Spit or swallow
Drown in your blood (Drown in your blood)
Or live in your shit (Live in your shit)
