Here he comes, the man in the white suit
El Exigente
The Demanding One
To decide if your beans
Are rich enough
Have they the means?
Everyone looks on
Will he approve?
Will our village make it?
It's boom or bust for us!
We could be drinking a lot of coffee this winter
We look at him and he shakes his head no
We look at each other, and we all scream
El Exigente, baby
You are chock full of shit
El Exigente
You are chock full of shit
We're hip to your plan, scam
Devalue our work and worth
So you can have it for nothing
You and those gringo bosses
You're always talking profits and losses
Capitalism is cannibalism
(swiped off Rachel HOLC's jacket)
You've never worked a day in a hot field
The revolution will come my friend
And those with none will get some
And we'll have a little justice
And what of you my friend?
Oh, you'll get a good whiff of the coffee
And your suit will get very dirty
You'll drink some lye and choke
El Exijente, baby
You are chock full of shit
El Exigente, baby
You are chock full of shit
