In games without frontiers-war without tears

Heh:

If the American analysis of the relationship between power and luxury goods is correct, surely the answer is to flood the Korean market with luxury goods. Carpet-bomb centres of population with aid-drops of Rolexes and iPods and (suitably packed) bottles of Bordeaux. Then power will lie with goods that only the people can provide -- like tomatoes, and bread.

Peter Gabriel gets the last word:

Andre has a red flag, Chiang Ching's is blue
They all have hills to fly them on except for Lin Tai Yu
Dressing up in costumes, playing silly games
Hiding out in tree-tops shouting out rude names
-Whistling tunes we hide in the dunes by the seaside
-Whistling tunes we piss on the goons in the jungle
It's a knockout
If looks could kill they probably will
In games without frontiers-wars without tears
If looks could kill they probably will
In games without frontiers-war without tears
Games without frontiers-war without tears
