lyrics

if you took my breath and i took your test
who would lead the tribe
if she gave you head and I just watched it
they would say we lied

the chamber voted, the sheriff gloated
the patriots arrived

if there's not difference between faith and fiction
how do you decide?
feel the burning, stomach churning,
look me in the eye

the council rested, a traitor mentioned
the patriots arrived
they gnashed their teeth, like a hungry beast
it was fear but they called it pride

to pack, to throw, to pick, to lift, to dig,
to squat, to scrub, to wipe, to dust clean the
gardens, toilets, little children
you want it faster
you want it cheaper

my back, my bones, my legs, my heart, my skin
and blood, and sweat, and heat, my hands give me
one good reason
harvest season
they want it faster
they want it cheaper

the chamber voted
the sheriff gloated
the patriots arrived
they gnashed their teeth
like a hungry beast
it was fear but they called it pride
