Last night I heard tell of a patriot
And mostly he is smilin'
Like a president for the one percent
Bank accounts in the offshore islands

If I'm right
I think I've been left
Just an educated guess

Conspiracy theories don't pay my bills
Nor do trickle-down ethics heal my ills
It's the talk of caring when outsourcing rules
And they literally bank on a nation of fools

Been a student of history, profit and loss
The power of money regardless the cost
The rich and the shameless focus on gain
As long as we're buyin' they'll sell us the same
