	Story Behind the Song This was a tuff one to record, They didnt know how to play it. But With a little practice, Turned out to be a masterpiece, Again. Took Joel several takes, Perhaps In the thousands. Lyrics FIRST IMPRESSION - Needs And Freedoms Taken Away (lyrics) NAFTA was supposed to be the savior It was supposed to help all the poor citizens Providing free trade across North America The econmy would thrive and poverty would disappear But now the only benefactors of this have been the rich (getting richer still) while the Poor, forced into this mess, have suffered all the while In Mexico, the ejido system is threatened by the private share holders Buying out the land and forcing the former owners into slave labour Droping wages, increasing their hours, working through siesta The only benefactors are the upper class, NAFTA is a molester Education budgets are cut down by leaders more concerned with lax labour laws And accumulating money for armaments to help american in all their wars The masses are suffering to help the few People are treated like slaves for the benefit of me and you The North American Free Trade Agreement Is only about Needs And Freedoms Taken Away World leaders insist that privatization of all resources is mandatory You must comply with the Structural Adjustment Program set up by the Global Army (U.N.) Make deep cuts into social spending forget about health education and housing Focus your efforts on export production, forget that your citizens are starving The masses are suffering to help the few People are treated like slaves for the benefit of me and you The North American Free Trade Agreement Is only about Needs And Freedoms Taken Away
