Lyrics
People turn people turn ugly
People turn into hideous beasts
Take away all of their money
Take away their office space
What you got left
Are rats in a circle
Chasing their tails running this race
What you got left are crumbs on the table
Cain vs Able mud on their face
People turn people turn ugly
People turn into hideous beasts
Take away all of their money
Take away their office space
What you got left is nobody listening
Too many cooks burn down the kitchen
What you got left is finger pointing
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
What you got left
Are jerks in a circle
Chasing their tails running this race
What you got left are crumbs on the table
Cain vs Able fallen from grace
People turn people turn ugly
People turn into hideous beasts
Take away all of their money
Take away their office space
What you got left is nobody listening
Too many chiefs and not enough injuns
What you got left is finger pointing
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
