Big Ones Get Away |
| Hey, Baby I just got back from town |
| Where the bribes are paid |
| Honey, they turned my offer down |
| They say the deal’s already made |
| So now I gotta stand and watch |
| While it all comes down |
| And the buzzards and the hawks |
| And the judges and the mob |
| Circle round |
| Now if I were the queen of all the world |
| I would go in chains just to see you free |
| Of the ropes that bind you |
| And the role you play |
| And the pride that hooks you |
| While the big ones get away |
| Love junkies wanna change the world: |
| It quickly stays the same |
| Money junkies hire all the smart ones |
| Power junkies run the game |
| One step at a time |
| Polarity Hill |
| If the bad guys don’t get you, baby |
| Then the good guys will |
| With angels on the take |
| And the gangsters in the yard |
| Hey don’t the wars come easy |
| Hey don’t the peace come hard |
| Now if I had a way to reach the sky |
| I’d grab that crescent moon |
| Wield it like a knife |
| Save you from the lies |
| From the ropes that bind you |
| And the role you play |
| And the game that hooks you |
| While the big ones get away |
