"N.W.O." (New World Order) is a song by the industrial band Ministry, released as the second single off the album Psalm 69. The single was Ministry's biggest hit, topping out on the Billboard charts at #11.
The song is a strike out against then President George H. W. Bush for the 1991 Persian Gulf war. The song features audio samples of his voice, with him repeating "A new world order" over and over again at the end of the song. At this point of the song in the video, Bush is portrayed with an enormous head, grabbing his crotch and waving around his arms. The majority of the video is a mix of police beatings, riots, and gunfights.
"N.W.O." was featured in the soundtrack of the film Cool World.
