Lyrics
Sterilized the freaks/ Tyrannized in luxury/ Xenophobes
Sterilized and weak/ Beam in the eye/ Don't lie for free
Who do you know now, anyway?/ Makes me cringe
When you know how it begins...
Cause a fit
Hold what you read up to the light / ...don't lie for free/ hold your nose/ Hold what you read/ Up to the light/ Enough for see
Who do you know now, anyway?/ Makes me cringe
When you go down it begins / Throes, a fit
On the low rung
Ah, forget it…
Lose my credit
Just laugh instead
Put it to bed/
No money, you're dead
There's a new sound/ right away/ makes me cringe
There's an old sound you can play/ everyone strays
In these final days
These final days...
