lyrics

Old dogs using new tricks
To get their last chance
To get that vote fixed
To be the hand that feeds
Be the hand that beats
Those fuckers are knocking on every door

Running dogs as masked mailmen
To up their price, call it
Workers’ compensation
Oh what, you didn’t know that?
Well now you do

Some men, nine-to-five
All they’ve got is a Saturday night
You say you’ve been down
Hell, if only you knew

Brother why are we kicking each other
I’ve got two boots with names on them
Our shoes ain’t ever gonna get filled
By the likes of those few

It’s all fun and games
Till someone brings the guns and the fame
It’s not the goodbye that hurts so much
As all the things it made us say

Circle the grounds executioner
Tell me now what have you found
It’s nothing of mine, your simple life
But still there’s something foul around
They’ve drawn a line with the hand that feeds
Don’t wince when the other comes down
