The Lyrics
They steal the wealth from you,
the hogging swine.
But you cannot stop what they do
unless buying them,
ah, but buying
means you have gotta hand them
a large sum that’s round,
or you’ll be abandoned
and be banished from their halls o’ ground.
You must bring wealth with you—
then get it line,
spend time.
They rob you,
they screw you,
they gull you,
unless you really plow
dough into their
grab bag o’ money,
fat as a cow.
Comes cheaply
does not, this hellish crew
of whores for dimes.
the hogging swine.
But you cannot stop what they do
unless buying them,
ah, but buying
means you have gotta hand them
a large sum that’s round,
or you’ll be abandoned
and be banished from their halls o’ ground.
You must bring wealth with you—
then get it line,
spend time.
They rob you,
they screw you,
they gull you,
unless you really plow
dough into their
grab bag o’ money,
fat as a cow.
Comes cheaply
does not, this hellish crew
of whores for dimes.
