Dancing With the Devil |
You sold your soul to stay afloat |
They raised the stakes to watch you fold |
Locked the doors and tapped the phones |
And you just fled to Mexico |
No one’s gonna fix all your mistakes |
Dancing with the devil, you had better |
Keep your hands above the waist |
Everything you touch will turn to sand |
When you see the world as nothing more |
Than money in your hand |
You’ll never get the chance to understand |
Just what it’s like to sleep without these voices in your head |
The silent chorus of the dead you left behind |
You taste the treason on her tongue |
You settle in the D.C. slum |
Hilltop house in Washington that they call the rising sun |
She washed the lipstick smudges from her face |
Sleeping with the state, you will eventually |
Just learn to love your taste |
Everything you touch will turn to sand |
When you see the world as nothing more |
Than money in your hand |
You’ll never get the chance to understand |
Just what it’s like to sleep without these voices in your head |
The silent chorus of the dead you left behind |
[Listen! |
Open the door, Fed window! |
He has no idea how bad it is out there! |
He has no idea! |
He has no idea! |
None! |
And Bill Poole? |
Has no idea!] |
A new hope for the poor folks, just a penny to the rich |
There’s a rally down on one street as a fire burns in Kensington |
As you carve another notch into your gun |
Set the spark and take your mark, you’ve finally got 'em on the run |
Everything you touch will turn to sand |
When you see the world as nothing more |
Than money in your hand |
You’ll never get the chance to understand |
Just what it’s like to sleep without these voices in your head |
The silent chorus of the dead you left behind |
You left behind |
