CHOOSE THE LYRICS

The chorus of Over There by George Cohan is:
Over there, over there,
Send the word, send the word over there
That the Yanks are coming, the Yanks are coming
The drums rum-tumming everywhere.
So prepare, say a prayer,
Send the word, send the word to beware -
We'll be over, we're coming over,
And we won't come back till it's over, over there.

But we know what war is. War is a racket.

So here are more apt lyrics, but I can't decide which ones are best. Can you help me?

Over there, over there,
Send the word, send the word over there.
Rothschild banks are coming, their banks are coming
Creating money from thin air.
So prepare, say a prayer,
Send the word, send the word to beware -
They'll be over, they're coming over,
And they won't come back till they've stole what's over there.

Options are:
1. replace "Rothschild" in line 3 with "British" or with "That the";
2. replace "they've stole" in line 8 with "they've grabbed" or with "they own".
