๐ Lyrics
[Embury / Greenway]
Nothing comes to nothing
When there's nothing there to give
The powers want to strip you clean
A charge for every breath
A price on skin that we walk in
They call this civil liberty
So-called champions for the poor
Tax us against the wall
Find it now or forefeit
The cance to "be" in peace
A price on skin that we walk in
A price on skin that we walk in
Grab thin air in one hand
A pound of fesh from the other
Crushing burden on the shoulders
An end to poverty?
Only if you pay up first
Meet the fee and keep your soul
Nothing comes to nothing
When there's nothing there to give
The powers want to strip you clean
A charge for every breath
A price on skin that we walk in
They call this civil liberty
So-called champions for the poor
Tax us against the wall
Find it now or forefeit
The cance to "be" in peace
A price on skin that we walk in
A price on skin that we walk in
Grab thin air in one hand
A pound of fesh from the other
Crushing burden on the shoulders
An end to poverty?
Only if you pay up first
Meet the fee and keep your soul
