lyrics

OK, so you've won: congratulations
You've got us, we concede
You've showed us how resourceful you can be
Now can we end this stupid game?
You know the system is rotten to the core
There's no denying that
And you've gotta be tired of all the work that goes to covering up your tracks
This game has gone on for far too long, now
Howsabout we make a deal?
We'll try to forgive you for your past mistakes
In exchange for the information you conceal
We could all benefit from the wealth you've stored, and the technology
We can work together to improve our common good
Make that our priority!
But then again...
Of course, this is all based on the assumption
That you're even interested in the common good
An assertion I'm unwilling to concede
There's far too much for you to lose in playing it straight
This game is all about power and control
We know that you're not willing to give up an inch
This game may not be for us to win
But I'll be damned if we go down without a fight
We will continue to tear away at the ground beneath your feet
In order to construct a level field
The advantage could turn so quickly...
We don't know what we're up against, but you'll continue to slip
And we'll be there to pull you down!
