It's easy 'nough You'll feel a little taller Time cuts slow, but you'll miss it now You'll know it's me and mine when I make you How many days will it take 'til you know the plan? And how many suns will pass before you understand You were banned, banned, banned You were banned, banned, banned By the man, the man, the man
