about

A song about greed and materialism.

lyrics

VICIOUS CIRCLE

Twenty dollars over the limit
It's trouble, see?
We're living in a vicious circle
And we must get free
The power of a pyramid
Hasn't done a thing for me
A dog on a raft in the ocean
Is not a 'cur to sea'

But you've got your best face on
When you clean the floor
You had your nest egg won
It's not true anymore

America the beautiful
Where have you gone?
We put you in a pretty package
Sold you for a song
Here comes suit and tie
A measure of success
He's selling out all of main street
Your momma could be next

But you've got your yes face on
Knock upon the door
Tell you "it's the best place"
Then "give a little more"

Riding on an ocean liner
All your blessed goods
A brand new logo to die for
In the neighborhood
Here comes man with gun
He's coming for your shoes
It's not how you play the game now
It's what you've got to lose

But you've got your flag pin on
What a patriot
It all looks so damn good
From a private jet
