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
