Yesterday I sold my soul to the Nazi party And donated all the proceeds to the Salvation Army We'll launder all our money in a laundry machine I know the money's still dirty but at least the dirt is clean Yesterday I sold my soul to John D. Rockefeller Who was generous, but only if you're A Standard Oil seller He had the most ungodly smile that I've ever seen So keep your hands filthy clean You know what I mean, yeah ♪ Yesterday I sold my soul to some crazy fucker And I managed to convince him it was me who played the sucker We'll make those shady deals through the eyes of a vulture But if there were no sellouts, there'd be no pop culture And so my friends I hope you like this little allegory Because everybody loves a little rags-to-riches story Now you understand the meaning when I sing Keep your hands filthy clean You know what I mean, yeah You know what I mean, yeah
