lyrics

I was not anticipating his call
Or how much I'd be expected to crawl
So I cried out to the old sage
As we sat in his rusted cage
I heard all of his deep insight
But those bars are still locked up tight
Life's worth more savage and free
Than all wisdom and empathy
Building myself a bag of tricks
I took up a trade for pricks

Crack down
And force down
And beat down
And let down

Found the men who wanted the reins
Lazy as me but without the brains
I sold them what they wanted for cheap
Failing to mention what they could keep
And when the next payment was due
I feigned shock at the jump in value
Let them loan at 30 percent
Piling debt on their children's presents
So I fleece the more dimwitted sheep
What makes you any better than me

Crack down
And force down
And beat down
And let down
