The deal goes down
The deal goes down
Lobbyists are pounding at the door
Give some to me       
Then give me some more
VERSE 1
Poverty is spreading all around
Empty buildings fillin’ up the town
History’s pages are turning back
Meanwhile cigarettes are nine bucks a pack
 
Chorus
And The deal goes down
The deal goes down
Lobbyists are pounding at the door
Give some to me
Then give me some more
VERSE 2
Everybody’s spying on everyone
Lives and careers are destroyed just for fun
Twenty-four hours of nothing but pointless noise
Orgasms reached by electronic toys

Chorus

And The deal goes down
The deal goes down
The deal goes down
Lobbyists are pounding at the door
Give some to me
Then give me some more

INTERLUDE

And The deal goes down
The deal goes down
Lobbyists are pounding at the door
Give some to me
Then give me some more
VERSE 3

Them polar ice caps they’re gone for sure
Radioactive waste washes up on Pacific Shores
The planet’s losing her ability to cleanse herself
Mother Nature’s putting you and me on the shelf
And The deal goes down
The deal goes down
Lobbyists are pounding at the door
Give some to me
Then give me some more
