Evil lurks as the whole world burns, They're up in towers, they await their turns Call the shots, they pull every string Better dance to the note of every song they sing And you better know that when they bring it back They'll take every penny that you ever had Suck you dry and tie you down Stripped of freedom They hold the crown Obey the law in the land of greed Suffer if we bite the hand that feeds They bought us up, sold us out Faith no more, left in doubt No hope left, just an empty hand Better point the finger at your fellow man And if you can't blame him Another man will fall To lift your burden And drag their trawl They'll line you up against the wall Your time will come History repeats Common man stomped under tyrants' feet Babylonia feeds We're all cannon fodder for their golden fleet
