[Verse 1] 80's people dancing, oooh Always get it right I'd listen but I can't tonight I can't tonight, I can't tonight Well there's something that you do to get it right End up reviled for it Yeah that's the thanks I get
[Chorus] I don't understand Your fucked up system, this sinister city Try to sell the water Try to sell the air Try to sell your daughter Try to sell her hair Verse!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2] 'We all want to watch the fight, is it on Sunday?' Hide in a hole with a gun in your hand In front of Someone you want dead I guess Hiding in your suit
[Verse 3] I did not know that Their bringing me back to my past I got my head in my hands I got my head in my— I got my head in my hands I got my head in my— I got my head — it's just something that you do to get it right End up reviled for it Yeah that's the thanks I get
[Chorus] Jail, that's what you get Stepping to the system Profiting from war Fighting as the victim Always wanting more Trying to trick your brothers Get them to fight it for you
[Bridge] I can not believe my eyes Darling I can tell you lies Coast to coast L.A. to Chicago I don't know geography all that well
[Outro] Defying western logic Even if it shows you're wrong I guess that's a classic Been with us all along
