tell you that they'll never ever do you wrong
whispering (to) you that sweet, sweet song
they can look you in the eyes
tell that you've never heard their lies

force the needle into their veins
every dollar pulls the noose tighter
forced into economic servitude
a risen nation, a new partner in crime

money, greed, death, power, death

tell you that they'll never ever do you wrong
whispering (to) you that sweet, sweet song
they can look you in the eyes
tell that you've never heard their lies

force the needle into their veins
every dollar pulls the noose tighter
forced into economic servitude
a risen nation, a new partner in crime

give to those who never had
addiction not so easily kicked
expecting their allegiance in return
no blood shed to conquer this land
