|
It's dog eat dog--I'm just waking up |
|
The dove is in the dungeon |
|
And the white-washed hawks pedal hate and call it love |
|
Dog Eat Dog |
|
Holy hope in the hands of |
|
Snakebite evangelists and racketeers |
|
And big wig financiers |
|
DOG EAT DOG |
|
On prime time crime the victim begs |
|
Money is the road to justice |
|
And power walks it on crooked legs |
|
Prime--Time--Crime |
|
Holy hope in the hands of |
|
Snakebite evangelists and racketeers |
|
And big wig financiers |
|
Where the wealth's displayed |
|
Thieves and sycophants parade |
|
And where it's made-- |
|
the slaves will be taken |
|
Some are treated well |
|
In these games of buy and sell |
|
And some like poor beast |
|
Are burdened down to breaking |
|
DOG EAT DOG |
|
It's dog eat dog, ain't it Flim Flam man |
|
Dog eat dog, you can lie, cheat, skim, scam |
|
Beat'em any way you can |
|
Dog eat Dog |
|
You'll do well in this land of |
|
Snakebite evangelists and racketeers |
|
You could get to be |
|
A big wig financier |
|
Land of snap decisions |
|
Land of short attention spans |
|
Nothing is savored |
|
Long enough to really understand |
|
In every culture in decline |
|
The watchful ones among the slaves |
|
Know all that is genuine will be |
|
Scorned and conned and cast away |
|
Dog eat dog |
|
People looking, seeing nothing |
|
Dog eat dog |
|
People listening, hearing nothing |
|
Dog eat dog |
|
People lusting, loving nothing |
|
Dog eat dog |
|
People stroking, touching nothing |
|
Dog eat dog |
|
Knowing nothing |
|
Dog eat dog |
