- "The people are sleeping, so please watch your step
We don't want to wake them and have to kill them just yet
If you drug them up, then I'll start robbing them blind
And if all goes as planned we'll leave a ruin behind"
A foul wind howls and a white moon burns bright
As the get-away car slashes through the night
No pigs on our tail, no eyes in the sky
- "Guess those pay-offs payed off" I mumble bone-dry
- "So, what will you buy with your share of the loot?
A yacht, trophy wife or another $1000 suit?"
- "Well, how 'bout we just torch it? I've no need for more junk"
We both burst out laughing when the children scream from the trunk
Oh no
We want to watch the world burn
Sell the ashes to the highest bidder
Oh no
There's still gold in streets
Close your eyes, we'll sell you down the river
With dawn fast approaching, the city draws close
Time to suit up and bring the world to new lows
- "Could you drop me off here? That's my office right there"
- "Yeah, see you next Sunday, we'll lay another home bare"
The sidewalks fill up with degenerate swine
Marching in line to get to the factories on time
As long as the wheels turn they'll dance to our beat
Endlessly building this gigantic trash heap
Oh no
We want to watch the world burn
Sell the ashes to the highest bidder
Oh no
There's still gold in streets
Close your eyes, we'll sell you down the river
- "The people are sleeping, so please watch your step
We don't want to wake them and have to kill them just yet
If you drug them up, then I'll start robbing them blind
And if all goes as planned we'll leave a ruin behind"
