Rich of this world are a global elite
They meet each year in an Alpine retreat
Fat-cats who purr in a luxury suite
They all concur that it’s good to compete
Chorus:
They fly into Davos to preach the old lie
They have the answer to Earth, sea & sky
They play a game called Winner Takes All
The higher they rise - the harder you fall
Rich and the poor share this world side by side
One is the vampire and one is the bride
Sweat from the poor is a fast rising tide
Floats all the boats in which rich people ride
Chorus:
Silicon Valley like miners of old
Dig for your data for data is gold
Sooner or later its bought and its sold
You never know it for you’re never told
Chorus:
Dante envisioned 9 circles of hell
Ninth was provisioned for traitors to dwell
Dante these souls with their sulphurous smell
Now park their Rolls at a Davos hotel
Chorus:
Ending:
They fly out of Davos their mission complete
Things stay the same so their life is still sweet
