Tainted
I've noticed
There's little faith anymore
But can you blame us?
We're all gutter fighters
Waist deep, sewers overflow
Blood and smoke on the radio
It's all good news
When you know, you know
Hidin' up in your ivory tower
Cheap thrills and endless power
Lives to devour
Hour by hour
When there's no-one else left to offend
Tell yourself and try to pretend it's you
It's only you
Ooh, can you look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place?
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Can you...
Can you...
Can you do the right thing?
I've noticed
There's little faith anymore
But can you blame us?
We'll hold our breath
And take the plunge
Amount of debt
We cannot solve
With a little wealth left to spare
Pull us from our hopeless prayer
Step up from your leather chair
A throne from which war is declared, oh
All of us so...
All of us so soon
All of us so...
All of us so soon
Ooh, can you look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place?
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Ooh, can you look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place?
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Can you...
Can you...
Can you do the right thing?
There's little faith anymore
But can you blame us?
We're all gutter fighters
Waist deep, sewers overflow
Blood and smoke on the radio
It's all good news
When you know, you know
Hidin' up in your ivory tower
Cheap thrills and endless power
Lives to devour
Hour by hour
When there's no-one else left to offend
Tell yourself and try to pretend it's you
It's only you
Ooh, can you look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place?
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Can you...
Can you...
Can you do the right thing?
I've noticed
There's little faith anymore
But can you blame us?
We'll hold our breath

I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Ooh, can you look me in the face
And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place?
I don't deserve the time, can't get the space
Can't scream any louder
Tainted by wealth and power
Wealth and power
Can you...
Can you...
Can you do the right thing?
