Who made the wealth
In this pleasant land?
The entrepreneurs made it
With their only free hand

Why do prices rise?
Who's to blame for that?
The workers put up prices
With their pay demands

Some speak of the facts
But I'm not sure about that
The only vital thing is
That our own view of the world wins

Don't cry
We will work it out
You've got to buy
The views we put about it

The views of the rich
The views of the powerful
Then your confusion
Will magically disappear

Why is there bad news
On the economic front?
The Japanese are trading
I'm barely living

Who destroyed our industry?
Who can tell me that?
The Germans swamp the market
With their German products

Some speak of the facts
But I'm not sure about that
The only vital thing is
That our own view of the world wins

Don't cry
We will work it out
You must only buy
The views we put about

The views of the rich
The views of the powerful
Then your confusion
Will soon disappear
