Dirty Deal
Met a creep who gets things done
He told me I'm the number one
He knew I was innocent
I knew he was fucking bent
He embraced me like a friend
Showed me all his monuments
I was impressed, what the hell,
Where I come from ain't much to tell
Still in all the way I feel
As I signed a dirty deal
System's rigged to favor crooks,
You don't find that in civic books
It's not cool to ask a man
To sign what he don't understand.
Guys found other guys were right
Contract's starting, then the night
And when truth is violent
They'll hand you on a chain link fence
Once you're in there's no appeal
You signed a dirty deal
Beware, beware!
Dirty, it's dirty
Once you're in there's no appeal
You signed a dirty deal
Beware, beware!
Listen!
Let the lame old story down people
I was a dummy, not a clown, people
I'm getting hard to be around people
Warning, warning, beware, beware!
Welcome to the real world
Where trouble loves a pretty girl
Your compound interest drifted, scum
Bite your blood until it runs
Simple people praise the Lord
Smarter people steal and hoard
If I was the president
I couldn't change their evil plans
Stealing all the way I feel
'Cause I signed a dirty deal
Look out! Look out! Look out!
Dirty, it's dirty,
It's dirty, it's dirty out there
The way I feel is I signed the dirty deal
Beware, beware
Dirty deal, dirty deal
