The Stars and Glitter

Stand in line, shoot your cuffs
A gift for the wife, seat on the bus
Fill your bags with what you got
Ain’t who you are but what you bought
Now step up to the gallows
Put a rope around your mind
You won’t see the shadows
In the darkest of skies
I will have the shadows in the dark east of skies
I take all day, a 2 face smile
Can’t touch your loss through the blank and fire
Take your seat with the lost and bitter
And clap your hands at the stars and glitter
Now step up to the gallows
Put a rope around your mind
You won’t see the shadows
In the darkest of skies
I will have the shadows in the dark east of skies
Marching falls, pension plans
Paying no attention in that starving man
A plastic house, a bended knee
Save it one, and believe you’re free
Now sign that blind for slavery
Though you can’t pay that loan and
This corporate plantation gonna be a new found home
Now step up to the gallows
Put a rope around your mind
You won’t see the shadows
In the darkest of skies
I will have the shadows in the dark east of skies
Stand in line, shoot your cuffs
A gift for the wife, seat on the bus
Fill your bags with what you got
Ain’t who you are but what you bought.
