| You are the power and the glory
|
| You are the weakness in defeat
|
| Like the rise and fall of the British Empire
|
| You make me sick with your conceit
|
| You are, you are the weakness
|
| You are, you are, you are
|
| The sickness that’s in my soul
|
| You are you are you are the maker
|
| You are called greed and you’re a cheat
|
| You are you are you are the deceiver
|
| You are not welcome in my life
|
| You are the maker of illusions
|
| You break up every dream we’ve ever made
|
| And as I rise up from the ashes
|
| Wouldn’t you believe it
|
| You raise your ugly head
|
| Have you no shame
|
| Too long, too long you have lain there
|
| Too far too long too strong
|
| Oh I will break your hold
|
| You are you are you are the maker
|
| You are called greed and you’re a cheat
|
| You are you are you are the deceiver
|
| You are not welcome in my life
|
| You are, you are the weakness
|
| Within us
|
| You are, you are, you are, you are the sickness that’s in my soul
|
| You are you are you are the maker
|
| You are called greed and you’re a cheat
|
| You are you are you are the deceiver
|
| You are called greed and you’re a cheat
|
| (You are, you are, you are the maker)
|
| You sow the seeds for our destruction
|
| (You are called greed and you’re a cheat)
|
| You break up everything we’ve done
|
| (You are, you are, you are the deceiver)
|
| You hold your hands out for forgiveness
|
| You bite the hands the hands that feed ya
|
| You are you are you are the maker
|
| You are called greed and you’re a cheat
|
| What prompted you to give it away
|
| You are you are you are the deceiver
|
| You are called greed and you’re a cheat
|
| You are the downfall
|
| You are you are you are the deceiver |
