It Works That Way

The decimation of information
Has led to confusion
And Intoxication
Power imbalanced
From the left to the right
Believe that black is white
And day is night
It makes you wonder
How much more we can take
The dance is fake
For the power's sake
You get no bread
In a beligerent state
Until you learn to behave
I guess it works that way
I guess it works that way

Engine oil
Fire and mud
Nothing's cheaper than
The price of blood
It doesn't take long
To make another one
And when they're done
They'll come for your son
Doing their dance
Saying it's for
The general cause
But you missed out
On the contract clause
It's buried deep
Within the fine print
Oil ain't cheap
But it's your money spent
In the end what can you say
The times have changed
I guess it works that way
I guess it works that way
I guess it works that way.
