lyrics

They walk soft but leave a Hefty footprint
Sharps Suits beneath a Knowing smile
Most Public Servants seem to care
While some claim Insider knowledge
and lead a Scripted dance.
But these Guys these Dolls
They've no class like Fred Astaire

Clubs and Associations
all exist to build their Ladders
Vice fed, Dark liaisons
Closed door conversations

Veiled threats with loaded suggestions
Sweet deals are Shimmied into line
Connections are their currency
Big Names and Big decisions
Pawns move in Pre-determined ways
A soft touch which hides a guided hand

Secret Institutions
Membership of clubs exclusive
Foster their Firm Allegiances
Insure Blind Faith with nifty Footwork

Might seem some Peccadillo's
Justifiable and Innocent
But these Guys and Dolls don't work for us
They maintain Corrupt Nations
and Undermine all change
and our lives fall quietly into line

All their Little Vices
serve to make us Serf's not Master's
all their Rewards Positions
All Strategic, Bought and Paid for

You can take your secret handshakes
You can keep that Ball and Chain
add it to your Club and Tie
And SHOVE THEM FIRMLY
WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE
