Killing The Working Man

from The Godfather (EP) by Marcos Cabanas

/

lyrics

You think all about it and then stay up all night
Thinking about the things that the government could do right
Well don't you worry brother 'cause tomorrow they'll be gone
Thinking about the future and saying that nothing will be wrong
They're just, killing the working man
And they're just, ruining our plans

Tucking yourself in bed worrying 'bout the outer world
Well come on and be happy you've only got one vote girl
You're hurt about the feelings and the pas and the before
But you drop the needle in the box and it'll be taken to the core
Let your voice get tough (boy)
Let your voice sound rough

What if I tell that they're plotting a bigger war
Trying to raise economic levels they're trying to raise the bar
It's not as easy as it sounds, it's not as easy as it looks
It's like if poor man pay rich bills or simply the banker cooks
They're just trying to put us all in the cart
But we are trying to take'em back to the start

Let me tell you the story of what I used to be
Working up my way to the top chained up but mentally free
Now they put their nose in our business and they're fucking it all up
And they're just sitting looking at us, and waiting there like "'Sup!"

If I had the time, if I had the money
If I was at their place would they still find it funny
(If it) was all turned round, if it was all upside down
(If) we were the boss and they were
Rocked would they still let that door be locked?

'Cause everything is bound to change
'Cause it is all real strange
And everything is bound to turn around
So let's all pound (Come on)

You think all about it and then stay up all night
Trying to think about all the things that we could do right
Well don't you worry brother 'cause tomorrow they'll be gone
Thinking about the future and saying that nothing will be wrong
They're just, killing the working man
And they're just, ruining our plans
