lyrics

Watch That Name

You'd better watch that name
Midas promise everything yeah
You'd better watch that game
With eyes out the back of your head

You're waiting on that big pay day
Love and peace and hoping for some petty change yeah
We're sorry but the lottery
Won't be paid today

You'd better watch that name
Judas gonna turn you in yeah
If you don't buy in to their plan
With lies put in the back of your head

You're thinking that you'll have your say
Taking pictures of yourself out on the motorway
We're sorry but it just won't play on the beat today

And I heard about this kind of thing
So many years before
So I'm going down to the river
To watch that willow bend
And I've had my doubts like I did before
So I'm really not that sure
I can't stand in this land of pretend
And still have the sun on my skin
And my back to the wind

You'd better watch that name
They run in packs, enslave the kid yeah
Common Core zombies to the highest bid
Oh my! Who made that bed?

You're swinging on a pendulum
Drawing your conclusions from the late night shows
We're sorry but you're being sold
The goods today

And I heard about this kind of thing
So many years before
So I'm going down to the river
To watch that willow bend
And I've had my doubts like I did before
So I'm really not that sure
I can't stand in this land of pretend
And still have the sun on my skin
And my back to the wind
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
My back to the wind

You'd better watch that name
Midas promise everything yeah
You'd better watch that game
With eyes out the back of your head

You're waiting on that big pay day
Love and peace and hoping for some petty change yeah
We're sorry but the lottery
Won't be paid today

You'd better watch that name
Judas gonna turn you in yeah
If you don't buy in to their plan
With lies put in the back of your head

You're thinking that you'll have your say
Taking pictures of yourself out on the motorway
We're sorry but it just won't play on the beat today

You better watch that name
You'd better watch that game
Midas promise everything
You'd better watch that game
You better watch that name
You better watch that game
You'd better watch that name
You better watch that game
You better watch that name
Midas promise everything
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
