Muse showing more work-in-progress song titles

The name of this working title song was shown on a photo posted by the Muse account on Twitter.[1]

In an NME article the song was described as being "flamenco-flecked". When earlier describing the album on twitter Matt was possibly referring to 'Animals' as 'face melting metal flamenco cowboy psychedelia'.

Apparently the song is about "the economies collapsing under the weight of stock market savagery and of the greed of the bankers".

In the same interview with the NME, Matt said "The world of business seems to be wild, That song is conjuring up the rawest form of that feeling of 'Look what humans are capable of doing, it's shocking' "

Lyrics
