Album Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables. Kill the Poor Lyrics. Efficiency and progress is ours once more Now that we have the Neutron bomb It's nice and quick and clean and gets things done Away with excess enemy But no less value to property No sense in war but perfect sense at home. The sun beams down on a brand new day No more welfare tax to pay Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light Jobless millions whisked away At last we have more room to play All systems go to kill the poor tonight Gonna.
Kill the Poor" was the third single by the Dead Kennedys. The record was released in October 1980 on Cherry Red Records with "In-sight" as the b-side.

It's the latest track to surface from The Sin and The Sentence sessions and remains faithful to the original 1980 recording. Heafy has spent the last few years really honing his clean voice and "Kill the Poor" represents one of his strongest moments, even if he opted out of adopting Jello Biafra's iconic nasal-toned charm. Hear the song in the video below. Since the 2017 release of The Sin and The Sentence, Trivium's eighth studio album, the band has steadily rolled out additional tracks. Pillars of Serpents," which appeared on the Ember to Inferno debut, was re-recorded, "Drowning in the Sound," a B-side, was released as was a cover of Type O Negative's "I Don't Wanna Be M.
