"Peasants" lyrics

Did you hear the news?
It's all that they talk about
Your silver spoon is rusted from the inside out
Now you're playin' with the big boys
'Till somebody else comes and fills the void
Give them what they're asking for
Let them whip the whipping boy

(Ha ha ha ha... oh...)

Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground

Money and sex
Will get you on the magazines
But cash the check
Before you leave the limousine
Soon you'll be gone without a trace like evidence in a fireplace
So, open up your trophy case
Stash some money, save some face

(Ha ha ha ha... oh...)

Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground

There comes a time
When your time is up
There's nothing left
To fill your cup

Liar, a waste
Now you're forever stainded
The storm you chased
Has now become a hurricane
So crank up the getaway?
You know there's nothing left to say
Impossible to be replaced
That's what you thought yesterday

(Ha ha ha ha... oh...)

Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
