Hook, Line & Sinker

With their minds on their money and money on their minds
They set the rules for how we ought to live our lives.
Hook, line and sinker, we swallow every little lie
As they steal the spark from the inside
Leaving barely enough for us to survive,
Like vampires we bite down and suck us dry.
We gotta rise on up from the underground,
Break on through the other side,
Get them while they're still in bed.
Rise on up from the underground,
They act like vampires and treat us like the living dead
They throw us the crumbs while we eat at their feet.
They wander round in their castles, while we roam the streets.
The treatment just seems so unjustified.
The treatment just seems so inhuman.
We can be our own authority if we rise up and declare a mutiny!
While we sell our lives in eight-hour slices,
Our blood is paying for their vices.
We live our lives on our knees, down on our knees,
As they steal the spark from the inside,
Leaving barely enough for us to survive,
Like vampires they bite down and suck us dry.
They act like vampires, we are the living dead
