The Lyrics
They’ll put the L. on you,
then take your dimes.
Then you’ll find: not much you can do—
you were buyin’
their line of lyin’
Now they’ve got their hands out,
so lay that bread down.
They have worked the scam out
in the hope that you won’t come around,
wake up and smell the doo
that’s in their minds,
washed minds.
They’ll bull you,
they’ll gull you,
they’ll lull you
they’ll pull you to their vows. . .
hope you won’t care
’bout reality
or sacred cows. . .
get “clear,” see?!
After the L.’s on you,
you’ll have no mind.
then take your dimes.
Then you’ll find: not much you can do—
you were buyin’
their line of lyin’
Now they’ve got their hands out,
so lay that bread down.
They have worked the scam out
in the hope that you won’t come around,
wake up and smell the doo
that’s in their minds,
washed minds.
They’ll bull you,
they’ll gull you,
they’ll lull you
they’ll pull you to their vows. . .
hope you won’t care
’bout reality
or sacred cows. . .
get “clear,” see?!
After the L.’s on you,
you’ll have no mind.
