the devil

One, two Hand on the Bible lies, maggots turn to flies Whole world's gone to hell, mama's back in jail Just can't get enough, think we've had too much Gunfire in the schools, melt down the golden rule Wear your promise ring, preacher's got a thing for me Keep it to yourself, the whole world's gone to hell A snake will crawl the earth to shed its skin To make more room for the poison And the filthy rich will rob you clean Until you raise your voices And the louder one above the rest Will call himself the rebel There's the one you know, there's the one you don't But they're still both the devil Work hard for the man Spare the rod, hell use your hands The hate'll break you down You're the toughest guy in town Oh, say can you see the nearest pharmacy? Yeah, a needle to the vein Might be the thing that'll kill the pain Don't trade away your soul You swear the world will never know that you were even here How he whispers in your ear A snake will crawl the earth to shed its skin To make more room for the poison And the filthy rich will rob you clean Until you raise your voices And the louder one above the rest Will call himself the rebel There's the one you know, there's the one you don't But they're still both the devil As I lay me down Go on, get behind thee now A snake will crawl the earth to shed its skin To make more room for the poison And the filthy rich will rob you clean 'Til you raise your voices And the louder one above the rest Will call himself the rebel There's the one you know, there's the one you don't But they're still both the devil
