Pay The Man

See the way the wind blows
Lives are intertwined
Watch the way the world goes
Man deals out our plight

Jester in the corner
Laughs without a sound
Jester in the corner
Malady abounds

In our souls, in our souls
In our souls

See the way the sun sets
Twilight of this life
Man is making little bets
Playing with our lives

All that I believe
Now anything is possible
A simple explanation
For the evil in this world

In our souls, in our souls
In our souls, in our souls

Come on down

Come down to sorry and sable
It's always the man
It's always that's keeping you down

Bow down 'cause I see it before me
Shadow and light
That always keeps you running

Oh, shut up you talk too much
Oh pay the man, now yeah
Oh, shut up you talk too much
Oh, no

Look at you and your struggle for freedom
But you ain't nothing
We all pay the man for living

Wouldn't it be nice for a change now
To be unchained
My life is for me now

But this is life
This is life
This is life
This is life

Pay the man
No
Pay the man
No
Pay the man
No
It's our life
No no no

Oh, shut up you talk too much
Oh, pay the man, now yeah
Oh, shut up you talk too much
Oh

Go
Oh, oh, oh
No
Oh
No no no

Oh, shut up you talk too much
Oh, pay the man now, yeah

My life is for me, oh oh oh
