Pay The Man

Offspring

See the way the wind blows


Lives are intertwined


Watch the way the world goes


The man deals out our plight





Jester in the corner


Laughs without a sound


Jester in the corner


Malady abounds


In our souls





See the way the sun sets


Twilight of this life


The man is making little bets


Playing with our lives





All that I believe now


Anything is possible


A simple explanation


For the evil in this world


And in our souls


In our souls





Come down to sorry and sable


It's always the man


Always keeping you down





Bow down cause I see it before me


Shadow and light


That always keeps you running





Shut up you talk too much


Pay the man


Shut up you talk too much





Look at you and your struggle for freedom


But you ain't nothing


We all pay the man for living





Wouldn't it be nice for a change now


To be unchained


My life is for me now


But this is life


Pay the man





Shut up you talk too much


Pay the man


Shut up you talk too much


Pay the man
