The Meek Shall Inherit Nothing (Broadcast 1981)

While you hit the wall
Work the floor
Work the pipe
In serious pain

Some take the bible
For what it's worth
When it says that the meek
Shall inherit the Earth
Well, I heard that some sheik
Has bought New Jersey last week
And you suckers ain't gettin' nothin'

Is Hare Rama really wrong
If you wander around with a napkin on
With a bell on a stick
An' your hair is all gone
The geek shall inherit nothin'

You say yer life's a bum deal
And you're turned up against the wall
People, you ain't even got no kinda deal at all
'Cause what they do in Washington
They just takes care of number one
And number one ain't you
You ain't even number two, that's right

Those Jesus freaks
Well, they're friendly but
The shit they believe has got their minds all shut
And they don't even care
When the church takes a cut
Ain't it bleak when you got so much nothin' (so what do you do? Hey)

Eat that pork, eat that ham
Laugh 'til ya choke on Billy Graham
Moses, Aaron an' Abraham
They're all a waste of time
And it's your ass that's on the line
Your ass that's on the line, that's right

Do what you wanna
Do what you will
Just don't mess up your neighbor's thrill
When you pay the bill
Kindly leave a little tip
And help the next poor sucker
On his one way trip

Some take the bible, oh-oh
Gimme a half a dozen for the hotel room
