walkin on a path of perdition
i see the smoke stacks in my periphery
huffin overtime spewing the residue
of the workin classes' faith in democracy
chuuuch house tilting on that banknote
attracting folk with give me some money lawdy
a three piece snack is ridin on a three minute song
with the coarse hair sellin out while the sub woofer's bumpin
hollin 'bout i'm hungry- for freedom - but i don't know how to eat that way
because i'm -UNDER THE SPELL OF THE HANDOUT 2x
i adore the gold and cash- i go for treason if that will increase my pay
because i'm -UNDER THE SPELL OF THE HANDOUT 2x
GIVE me my share please HAND
25 years to life- the new degree - new occupation
census can't quantify the desperation ailing the hungry
and the beaten all across the dreamy USA
the ball is under the spell of the handout
GIVE me my share- oh lord give me my share
i heard the plea's and cries- give a voice - give me my mind back
give me the floor- give me some room- nah man you got to take it
take it - demand it
i heard the plea's and cries - make me the choice - let me in the caste
give my poor son and daughter a pass - you got to take it- got to take it
sometimes you got to ask yourself -what am i feedin on- what am i steppin in
what am i givin up now - what am i depending on - what do i represent here - what am i thinking of NOW!
UNDER THE SPELL OF THE HANDOUT 2x
i adore the gold and cash – i go for treason if that will increase my pay
because i'm under - i'm under the spell of the handout
oh I'm hungry for a freedom if that will – gimme gimme gimme and i'm gone
