Blow it up

Hail to the king of vanity
Praise to the lord of hostility 
Hallejulah! Bless the bottom line
New day, same con 
Works every time 

Take it all 'til there's nothing left
Never believed a word that you said
Destroyer you are become death
Sell out, cash in, but you'll always be
Bankrupt 

I'm waiting for an answer
Life is a disaster we're going through 
Time keeps on moving backwards
The world is a cancer coming for you

Hail to the king
Well, who's the fucking king?
I won't be bowing to power I'll never kiss the ring
Fake fortunes on the backs of the unfortunate 
Stock options only offset the loneliness 

Money talks but time's going deaf
Can't buy back the life that you spent
Destroyer you are become death
Sell out, cash in, but you'll always be
Bankrupt 

I'm waiting for an answer
Life is a disaster we're going through 
Time keeps on moving backwards
The world is a cancer coming for you

Everybody's got a knife to their neck
If they're coming for them, they're gonna come for you next
Nobody's life is worth as much as the check
They're gonna sign it in blood with the tip of the bayonet

The deck is stacked
The game is rigged
The only rope they give
Chokes us when they pull the strings

I'm waiting for an answer
Life is a disaster we're going through 
(Take it all 'til there's nothing left)
Time keeps on moving backwards
The world is a cancer coming for you
