Though they're always at your side
Only waiting to take you a ride
Feel the creature rise inside you
With misguided I'll intent
Look around it's your only defence
On and on the story goes
Where it leads to we all know
What you give is what you get
What you give is what you get
See the hungry cry for the children
Watch the greedy call for more
And the self ordained proceed to shut the door
When the needy run from the table
For they know there's nothing there
Hoping one day will somebody care
We've gotta be good gotta be strong
The final approach is taking too long
Too late in the day when everything's gone
Now the villain he may prosper
And the thief might do as well
With amusement their crimes they dispel
All the promises they've broken
And the hearts they have betrayed
End to end they are carefully laid
Don't invite the vicious companions Though they're always at your side Only waiting to take you a ride Feel the creature rise inside you With misguided I'll intent Look around it's your only defence On and on the story goes Where it leads to we all know What you give is what you get What you give is what you get See the hungry cry for the children Watch the greedy call for more And the self ordained proceed to shut the door When the needy run from the table For they know there's nothing there Hoping one day will somebody care We've gotta be good gotta be strong The final approach is taking too long Too late in the day when everything's gone Now the villain he may prosper And the thief might do as well With amusement their crimes they dispel All the promises they've broken And the hearts they have betrayed End to end they are carefully laid Explain Request ×
