Hey! Stand up! Ruthless people! Hey! Stand up! Ruthless people! Real and evil!
They love the smell of the killing, the flesh Gorging 'til they've had their fill of success Dealing their mother to get into paradise Pay Jesus special protection, and ain't it wise!
Hey! Stand up! Ruthless people! So deceitful! I wanna tell you... Hey! (Come on! ) Stand up!... Get on your feet! Ruthless people! Real and evil! What I say...
Greedy forever and ever, success Greedy and ever so clever, a mess Given the right on to creep into paradise They'll even blackmail St. Peter then pay the price!
Hey! Stand up!... Get on your feet! Ruthless people! Greed and evil! Oh yes!
You can have it if you want it It might take the rest of your life If you want it you can have it To a balancing act on a knife You can have it if you want it If you think it's cheap at the price If you want it you can have it But sweat your sweet soul out of lives!
Ruthless people! Ruthless people! Ruthless people! Ruthless people! You better watch your back now!
