lyrics

You played your part in their shameful parlor trick
Did you not think the swamp would co-opt you to stand up in their name?
They pulled your rip cord look back
That's them up in their fancy looting plane
No unmarked kidnaps just stage craft
Violence helps em' win the game
It is their way

Well all pokes aside
We got taken for another ride
You played their game for shame
And there the swamp remains.

It's getting pretty dark when you
Lock em' up in cages when they're
Crawling from blowback
Where's the hope we can't even own our shame?
Where's your Jesus he's out back
Caning little fingers on the cage
All in our name

Well I need you to see
The best of us are not in league
And that don't change when we
Pick another name

It really warms the heart to see the house taken to task
They cry free markets, call that
It's a two party crash ahead up in our lane
They dance together slyly
They'll pillage whoever just the same
It is their way

It's all getting pretty old
Running scapegoats up the pole
They're like kings and we don't even know their names
Well we need to wake up, we've been divided and we're stuck
We're all marks and we don't even know the game

So you tell those golden thugs
They can't steal what revolves
We see them all and we'd do well
To trade the cage
