This song is presumably a criticism and warning about Bill Clinton’s US presidential term.
Although not in the official release, in the 1992 demo for this song there is a sample from probably an interview or news video of someone saying “Bill Clinton has trouble telling the truth.”
[Verse 1]
Economy declines - worldwide regression
Growing within - never to recover
Stock market crash
Broker ends the fall
From the nineteenth floor
-[?]
[Verse 2]
Trade wars, national debt - producing
Paramount consequence
One system - government
World domination - omnipotent
[Chorus 1]
(One for all) worldly wise
(All for one) telltale crime
-"American People say the name. Their president to tell the truth"
[Verse 3]
Inflate, contaminate the system frail
Internal deficit compiles
Truth combust, propagate distrust
Driving in another nail
[Chorus 1]
(One for all) worldly wise
(All for one) telltale crime
-"[?] going on in here"
[Chorus 2]
(One for all) worldly wise
(All for one) telltale crime
(One for all) master mind
(All for one)
[Verse 1]
Economy declines - worldwide regression
Growing within - never to recover
Stock market crash
Broker ends the fall
From the nineteenth floor
[Chorus 1]
(One for all) worldly wise
(All for one) telltale crime
-"American People say the name. Their president to tell the truth"
