Paid The Piper

The Jakes

Intro () Verse Paid the Piper for your damned religion Lookin' up at the stars for signs of it Bet on mercenaries like twin race cars Tell me why this corruption ain't all your fault Pre-Chorus Waiting by the yard your fine Children's guns they fire by night Bullets in the dark Your life it's hard So you bring it up baby Just let it down again And say the world has screwed you Because you're buying everything There's a price to be in heaven Cuz lord it ain't for free You need divine intervention Come sanctify me Verse Wait for him in the back he's got your dough They've got to be taxes so let the murders grow What's wrong with this boy his neck is snapped You better run from the police cuz they've got your ass Pre-Chorus Waiting by the yard your fine Children's guns they fire by night Bullets in the dark Your life it's hard So you bring it up baby Just let it down again And say the world has screwed you But you're buying everything There's a price to be in heaven Cuz lord it ain't for free You need divine intervention Come sanctify me Bridge Run Jack Run, Run Jack Run… So you bring it up baby Just let it down again And say the world has screwed you But you're buying everything There's a price to be in heaven Cuz lord it ain't for free You need divine intervention Come sanctify me Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhooohoooohhhh
