|
Standing at the base of the pyramid, |
|
but it's never gonna meet the eye |
|
You're not supposed to know that it exists, |
|
when nothing's there, there's nothing to deny |
|
If you leave your place in the foundation, |
|
see the castle made of sand |
|
Watch it fall into the sea and wither away, |
|
a new dawn's here, are you feeling okay? |
|
The suits, the law and the uniforms, |
|
bringing greed, borders and patrols |
|
Time is what you got, |
|
so do you know who is getting yours? |
|
When they say it's cheap they're just hiding costs |
|
Here comes the swine dressed in diamonds and pearls |
|
The suits, the law and the uniforms, |
|
bringing greed, borders and patrols |
|
You know that life was meant for so much more than this |
|
More than wages, profit and control |
|
Oh, I don't want your job, |
|
no, I won't live your lie |
|
No, I won't live your lie |
|
So I won't kneel for you, |
|
no, I ain't gonna bow |
|
No, I ain't gonna bow |
|
I see ourselves and I don't understand, |
|
what it is that makes a man? |
|
When I hear them say they love to own, |
|
I hear a sister with broken bones |
|
If we can make it through their new deal, |
|
the world will come a-tumbling down |
|
It's the suits, the law and the uniforms, |
|
bring greed, borders and patrols |
|
You know that life was meant for so much more than this |
|
More than wages, profit and control |
|
Oh, I don't want your job, |
|
no, I won't live your lie |
|
No, I won't live your lie |
|
I won't kneel for you, |
|
no, I ain't gonna bow |
|
No, I ain't gonna bow |
|
It's the suits, the law and the uniforms, |
|
bring greed, borders and patrols |
|
You know that life was meant for so much more than this |
|
More than wages, profit and control |
|
It's the suits, the law and the uniforms, |
|
bring greed, borders and patrols |
|
You know that life was meant for so much more than this |
|
More than wages, profit and control |
|
No, I won't live your lie |
|
No, I ain't, I ain't gonna bow |
