Megadeth - Hook in Mouth lyrics

[Megadeth - Hook in Mouth lyrics]

A cockroach in the concrete
Courthouse tan and beady eyes
A slouch with fallen arches
Purging truths into great lies
A little man with a big eraser
Changing history
Procedures that he's programmed to
All he hears and sees
Altering the facts and figures
Events and every issue
Make a person disappear
And no one will ever miss you

Rewrites every story
Every poem that ever was
Eliminates incompetence
And those who break the laws
Follow the instructions of the New
Way's Evil Book of Rules
Replacing rights with wrongs
The files and records in the schools

You said you've got the answers
Well who asked you anyway?
Ever think maybe it was meant to be this way?
Don't try to fool us
We know the worst is yet to come
And I believe my kingdom will come

F is for fighting, R is for red
Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed
E, we elect them, E, we eject them
In the land of the free and
The home of the brave
D for your dying, O, your overture
M, they will cover your grave with manure
This spells out 'FREEDOM'
It means nothing to me
As long as there's our PMRC

F is for fighting, R is for red
Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed
E, we elect them, E, we eject them
In the land of the free and
The home of the brave
D for your dying, O, your overture
M is for money, you know what that cures
This spells out 'FREEDOM'
It means nothing to me
As long as there's our PMRC

F is for fighting, R is for red
Ancestors' blood in battles they've shed
E, we elect them, E, we eject them
In the land of the free and
The home of the brave
D for your dying, O, your overture
M, they will cover your grave with manure
This spells out 'FREEDOM'
It means nothing to me
As long as there's our PMRC

Put your hand right up my shirt
Pull the strings that make me work
Jaws will part, words fall out
Like a fish with hook in mouth

Rewrites every story
Every poem that ever was
Eliminates incompetence
And those who break the laws
Follow the instructions of the New
Way's Evil Book of Rules
Replacing rights with wrongs
The files and records in the schools

I'm not a fish, I'm a man hook in mouth!
