Peasants
Did you hear the news?
It's all that they talk about
Your silver spoon
Is rusted from the inside out
Now you're playin' with the big boys
'Til somebody else comes and fills the void
Give them what they're askin' for
Let them whip the whippin' boy
Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
Money and sex
Will get you on the magazines
But cash the check
Before you leave the limousine
Soon you'll be gone without a trace
Like evidence in a fireplace
So open up your trophy case
Stash some money
Save some face
Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
There comes a time
When your time is up
There's nothin' left
To fill your cup
Liar
A waste
Now you're forever stained
The storm you chased
Has now become a hurricane
So crank up the getaway
You know there's nothin' left to say
Impossible to be replaced
That's what you thought yesterday
Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
It's all that they talk about
Your silver spoon
Is rusted from the inside out
Now you're playin' with the big boys
'Til somebody else comes and fills the void
Give them what they're askin' for
Let them whip the whippin' boy
Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
Money and sex
Will get you on the magazines
But cash the check
Before you leave the limousine
Soon you'll be gone without a trace
Like evidence in a fireplace
So open up your trophy case
Stash some money
Save some face
Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
There comes a time
When your time is up
There's nothin' left
To fill your cup
Liar
A waste
Now you're forever stained
The storm you chased
Has now become a hurricane
So crank up the getaway
You know there's nothin' left to say
Impossible to be replaced
That's what you thought yesterday
Say say say
What they pay you to
Say say say
We're all just peasants in the
Way way way
But you'll never keep us down
We'll never make a sound
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
When we burn your kingdom to the ground
