“Genetic Overkill” by Tankard, Album: Beast of Bourbon, (2004)

You make me angry
With all those filthy lies
"For mankind beneficial"
Is what you always say

Greedy to the backbone
Blessed be biotechnology
Consequences unknown
Money for the mega-companies
Thank you for the "false" food
Cool, that we can be your guinea-pigs

Genetic Overkill - eat shit
We all will pay the bill - legal damaged health
Genetic Overkill - that's sick
We all will pay the bill - to increase their wealth

Hey, ruthless Monsanto
Your Third World homicide
Controls them, exploits them
With crops and pesticides

Sanctions for Europe
That's what Bush has to say
But we don't want those products
Almighty U.S.A.

Greedy to the backbone
Blessed be biotechnology
Consequences unknown
Money for the mega-companies
Thank you for the "false" food
Cool, that we can be your guinea-pigs

Genetic Overkill - eat shit
We all will pay the bill - legal damaged health
Genetic Overkill - that's sick
We all will pay the bill - to increase their wealth


Another surprise from a band that isn’t enough famous for their social and environmental awareness. Outspoken lyrics that take no prisoners about the issue of GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) colossal multinational corporations, like Monsanto, try to release to environment, agriculture and food market all over the world in order to control world food production for more profits, disregarding probable irreversible consequences and impacts to environment, public health, social and economic automomy of Third World small local economies and no matter the independent scientists’ warnings about serious evidence for such risks: Allergy in humans, health hazards to animals fed with GMO, uncontrolled release and mixing GMO with conventional food, etc
