On the top we're white as snow, but if you ever look below
Underneath we are blacker than the darkness
We will never criticise, while your people starve and die
Close our eyes, we can sleep, we have no conscience

We will never, never fight, we don't care who's wrong or right
Turn away, wait until the battle is over
Third World aid and Nazi gold, we don't carе from who you stole
Bring it in, we will do the dеvil's laundry

We are the gnomes, and we are sleazy
You wanna hide your loot, we can make it easy
No questions asked, no, no, no, no, you're just a number
'Going down', underground where the gnomes are running round

Take the key for your box, spin your combination lock
And play with your plunder, play with your plunder
Play with your plunder, play with your plunder

Come and climb our mountainsides, many do and some survive
Breathe it in, this is the perfume of corruption
How can we survive, you say, while the villains steal and play
Lips are sealed, but they know we know their secrets
This is where dictators thrive, hide their loot while countries die
Many hopes and dreams will perish in the strongbox
Look behind your charities, look to where the money keeps running to
It will never reach the needy

We are the gnomes, and we are sleazy
You wanna hide your loot, we can make it easy
No questions asked, no, no, no, no, you're just a number
'Going down', underground where the gnomes are running round

Take the key for your box, spin your combination lock, and play with your plunder, play with your plunder
Play with your plunder, play with your plunder

This is the land of cuckoo clocks, chalet girls and precious rocks
Squeaky clean but laden with hypocrisy
No one knows how far we'd sink, hide the traces, hide the stink
We cover up the centuries of misery

We are the gnomes, and we are sleazy
You wanna hide your loot, we can make it easy
No questions asked, no, no, no, no, you're just a number
'Going down', underground where the gnomes are running round

Take the key for your box, spin your combination lock
And play with your plunder, play with your plunder
Play with your plunder, play with your plunder
Play with your plunder, play with your plunder
Play with your plunder, play with your plunder
