The title song from the second album of Ministry’s Anti-Bush trilogy, Rio Grande Blood focuses on Bush’s greed towards fuel, and his seeming “oppression” of the middle and working classes.
And now a message from the President of the United States George W. Bush
I've adopted sophisticated terrorist tactics
And I'm a dangerous, dangerous man
With dangerous, dangerous weapons
I want to drain the coal resources in America
And foreign sources of crude oil
I have a weapon of mass destruction
I am a brutal dictator
I'm evil
I've got something that I must confess
I make a profit off people oppressed
I take the money ‘til there's nothing left
And all I gotta say is yippie-aye-yay
Rio Grande blood, yeah
I want money
I want your money
I want crude oil
This is the government's money
I'm an asshole
I can't remember the world such a mess
Not for the companies I like the best
Exxon and Conoco – fuck all the rest
And all I gotta say is yippie-aye-yay
Rio Grande blood, yeah
I want money
I want your money
I want crude oil
This is the government's money
We went to war because of our dependence on foreign oil (Haliburton)
We went to war because of money
(Haliburton)
We will settle for nothing less than victory, victory
(Haliburton)
We will settle for nothing less than crude oil
(Crude oil)
Squeezing the working class who I detest
Taxing the poor so the rich can invest
I know I'm an asshole, but aren't you impressed?
And all I gotta say is yippie-aye-yay
Rio Grande blood, yeah
Rio Grande blood, yeah
I want crude oil
Rio Grande blood, yeah
I want money (of course)
Rio Grande blood, yeah
