Kapela Ministry vznikla v roce 1981 v Chicagu. Založil ji Al Jourghensen . Syntetický pop kapely se koncem 80.let mění na tehdy neznámý industrial metal. Velkou měrou se o to přičinil Paul Barker, který přišel do Ministry z kapely Blackouts...

Rio Grande Blood
And now a message from the President of the United States George W. Bush 
I've adopted sophisticated terrorist tactics 
And I'm a dangerous, dangerous man 
With dangerous, dangerous weapons 
I want to drain the coal resources in America 
And foreign sources of crude oil. 
I'm a weapon of mass destruction 
And I'm a brutal dictator 
And I'm evil 


[Verse 1] 
I've got something that I must confess 
I make a profit off people oppressed 
I take the money 'til there's nothing left 
And all I gotta say is Yippie Aye Yay 


[Chorus] 
Rio Grande Blood 


I want money 
I want yer money 
I want crude oil 
It's the government's money 
I'm an asshole 


[Verse 2] 
I can't remember the world such a mess 
Not for the companies I like the best 
Exxon and Conoco - fuck all the rest 
And all I gotta say is Yippie Aye Yay 


[Chorus] 
Rio Grande Blood 


I want money 
I want yer money 
I want crude oil 
It's the government's money 


Breakdown 
We went to war because of our dependence on foreign oil Haliburton 
We went to war because of money 
Haliburton 
We will settle for nothing less than victory, victory 
Haliburton 
We will settle for nothing less than crude oil -crude oil 


[Verse 3] 
Squeezing the working class whom I detest 
Taxing the poor so the rich can invest 
I know I'm an asshole, but aren't you impressed 
And all I gotta say is Yippie Aye Yay 


[Chorus] 
Rio Grande Blood 


Rio Grande Blood 
Rio Grande Blood 
I want crude oil 
Rio Grande Blood 
I want money 
Rio Grande Blood
