[Verse 1]
History's not made
By presidents or popes
Or kings or queens or generals
Or CIA kingpins runnin' dope

History's not made
By nine robed men
Or billionaires or bankers
It's not made by them

[Chorus]
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine

[Verse 2]
Might throw a little money 'round
Wonderin' who can be bought
And some might find they're weaker
And some stronger than they thought

Well, I'll stand or fall right here
In my country, in my home
I used to think I was alone, well
I ain't alone no more
[Chorus]
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine, go

[Bridge]
Hollow box, steel string
Union made, let freedom ring

[Verse 3]
Me and my people are hungry
Me and my people are through
Me and my people are ready
Me and my people are just about due

I'm a massive air strike on a beautiful night
Yeah, this is my song I'm singin'
Somebody better start countin'
We're comin' out, we're comin' out swinging

[Chorus]
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine, go
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
Black Spartacus Heart Attack Machine
