"Pigs" lyrics

"Pigs"

I work so hard
I made my mark
But I'm kept in the dark
While the pigs get paid

They shake your hand
They break your band
They'll take you where you stand
And the pigs get paid

Oh darling, I wanna buy a house for you
Oh darling, I wanna set you free
Oh darling, I wanna do the dance with you
But I'm on my knees
Please, hear me

Let's drink, let's ride
The ink has dried
But don't blink, they're not on your side
Yeah the pigs get paid

Hey man, great show
Here's what you owe
What can, what can I say
When the lyrics don't matter anyways?

Oh darling, I wanna buy a house for you
Oh darling, I wanna set you free
Oh darling, I wanna do the dance with you
But I'm on my knees
Please, hear me

It's don't add up
It's don't add up
It's don't add up
It's don't add up
It's don't add up
So put a dollar in my cup

Oh darling, I wanna buy a house for you
Oh darling, I wanna set you free
Oh darling, I wanna do the dance with you
But I'm on my knees
Please

Oh darling (oh darling)
Oh darling (oh darling)
Oh darling (oh darling)
Take it from me
