Standing at the base of the pyramid,
but it's never gonna meet the eye
You're not supposed to know that it exists,
when nothing's there, there's nothing to deny
If you leave your place in the foundation,
see the castle made of sand
Watch it fall into the sea and wither away,
a new dawn's here, are you feeling okay?
The suits, the law and the uniforms,
bringing greed, borders and patrols
Time is what you got,
so do you know who is getting yours?
When they say it's cheap they're just hiding costs
Here comes the swine dressed in diamonds and pearls
The suits, the law and the uniforms,
bringing greed, borders and patrols
You know that life was meant for so much more than this
More than wages, profit and control
Oh, I don't want your job,
no, I won't live your lie
No, I won't live your lie
So I won't kneel for you,
no, I ain't gonna bow
No, I ain't gonna bow
I see ourselves and I don't understand,
what it is that makes a man?
When I hear them say they love to own,
I hear a sister with broken bones
If we can make it through their new deal,
the world will come a-tumbling down
It's the suits, the law and the uniforms,
bring greed, borders and patrols
You know that life was meant for so much more than this
More than wages, profit and control
Oh, I don't want your job,
no, I won't live your lie
No, I won't live your lie
I won't kneel for you,
no, I ain't gonna bow
No, I ain't gonna bow
It's the suits, the law and the uniforms,
bring greed, borders and patrols
You know that life was meant for so much more than this
More than wages, profit and control
It's the suits, the law and the uniforms,
bring greed, borders and patrols
You know that life was meant for so much more than this
More than wages, profit and control
No, I won't live your lie
No, I ain't, I ain't gonna bow
