You’d take a stand for the common man
If you’d go through election
Helping hand to the promised land
Unnatural selection
You gain respect, no one suspects
You’re only double-talking
Rats they follow when the piper plays
And they just keep on walking
Don’t tell me something that i already know
What makes you think this is the life i want to live
I’m losing one thing and get nothing in return
You keep on taking ’til there’s nothing left to give
I see your face in every place
Fundraisers for the needy
You get your kicks at benefits
A swindler getting greedy
Both hands down the cookie jar
A corporation kickback
Stuff your face with caviar
Matching soul that’s jet black
Don’t tell me something that i already know
What makes you think this is the life i want to live
I’m losing one thing and get nothing in return
You keep on taking ’til there’s nothing left to give
