Pay the Man

See the way the wind blows

Lives are intertwined

Watch the way the world goes

The man deals out our plight

Jester in the corner

Laughs without a sound

Jester in the corner

Malady abounds

In our souls

In our souls

In our souls

See the way the sun sets

Twilight of his life

Man is making his own bets

Paying with our lives

All that I believe now

Anything is possible

A simple explanation for

The evil in this world

And in our souls

In our souls

In our souls

In our souls

Come down to sorry and sable

It's always the man

It's always them keeping you down

Bow down 'cause you see it before me

Shadow and light

That always keeps you running

Oh

Shut up, you talk too much

Oh

Pay the man now, yeah

Oh

Shut up, you talk too much

Oh

No, no

Look at you and your struggle for freedom

But you ain't nothing

We all pay the man for living

Wouldn't it be nice for a change now?

To be unchained

My life is for me now

But this is life

This is life

This is life

This is life

Pay the man (No)

Pay the man (No)

Pay the man (No)

It's the man (No, no, no)

Oh

Shut up, you talk too much

Oh

Pay the man now, yeah

Oh

Shut up, you talk too much

Oh

Oh

Oh

Oh

Oh

Oh

Shut up, you talk too much

Oh

Pay the man now, yeah

My life is for me, oh
