Welcome to the show you’re the guest and the host
You’re the rider and driver I’m seller and the soul
Behind the curtain collared, friends pretending that its normal
For pennies on the dollar, I will stick you in the corner
Not a loner, more a system of sophisticated hucksters
Who peddle easy answers to a myriad of suckers
Taking Credit card or debit, a lot people’s homes
Known to break a union, or a movement or a mode
Who would ever speak in code?
Or cloak themselves in shadows?
I sell you every nightmare I can feed into the channel
I scream in giant billboards till the posse gets the message
I own the keys and cages where I’d stick you in a second
Decades full of sleepy kids becoming cranky parents
Sore as fuck at Peter Pan for aging like he’s Paris
Invented disconnection turn a herd to friendly strangers
Who wouldn’t know their neighbor from the baby in a manger
We are way beyond a bargain
Or bearing all the burden
Organize the work force and
The powerful get nervous
Not asking for a break
We came to break some heads
This shit is in our blood
Like the day of the dead
The progress marches forward
Telling stories from the Bible
I'm walking with hands up
On the smart side of the rifle
The orchard smells disgusting
The crop cannot be salvaged
It’s not so much employment
As a stressor to be managed
On a wheel that won't stop turning
All the mammals into metal
Talking like a robot
Into laptops on the dresser
If you're looking for employment
That could humble a priest
Let me dip your soul in season
At the mouth of the beast
The virtue tied to struggle
A romantic form of blame
From the citizens with canes
Feeding Rosebuds to the flame
People picture kingpins at a corner office desk
More like Volpe in a village luring kids onto the ship
The kidnapped think their chosen
No awareness of abduction
If the weekends feels idyllic
We will always serve our function
I know you feel the tension
The moment rivals Atlas
It's not about the outcome
It's all about the practice
We are way beyond a bargain
Or bearing all the burden
Organize the workforce
The powerful get nervous
No asking for a break
Came to break some heads
This shit is in my blood
Like the day of the dead
