Lyrics

Devil of Us All

Written by: Jeff Perholtz

Well it's the Krispy Kremes and dying dreams, and influential older teens that make the younger ones feel the weight of this world
where you're taught to take one take two maybe three, it's a lack of sympathy and case of gluttony.

You can see it in Mcdonalds and the Burger Kings, the awkward cheese pumper at the local Circle K
where the old large is now a small the new large is six feet tall, in your choice of coke or pepsi, poopy shasta, diet dew.

You are looking like years have gone by.
You are looking like you need to die, oh why well try to see the reason.

Like the rest of us all you're always bound to fall for the the devil of us all

Well it's the racism, socialism, capitalism, crapitalism what's an ism but a prisim with a lack of sunlight
and coorporations, frustration, temptation, masturbation
infiltrate our nation like a teeny boy bopper band.

Oh man the ticks, the tricks, the fix that lets you get your kicks from heroin to hookers to a sony playstation.
Where an hour turns into four and four turns into many more any way to get your score, tomorrow you'll be back for sure

You are looking like years have gone by.
You are looking like you need to die, oh why well try to see the reason.

Like the rest of us all you're always bound to fall for the the devil of us all

Well it's the indicision, lack of vision, reality telivision that work on your brain like Fat Albert on a Klondike bar.
It's the constant state of need that plants the seed of greed like a weed inside of everyone.

You are looking like years have gone by.
You are looking like you need to die, oh why well try to see the reason.

Like the rest of us all you're always bound to fall for the the devil of us all.
