Met a creep who gets things done He told me I'd be number one He knew I was innocent I knew he was fucking bent He embraced me like a friend And showed me all his monuments I was impressed, what the hell? Where I come from, ain't much to tell Still and all, the way I feel is I signed a dirty deal The system's rigged to favor crooks You won't find that in civics books It's not cool to ask a man to sign what he don't understand Guys smarter than God will write Contracts darker than the night And when truth becomes violent They'll hang you on a chain link fence Once your in, there's no appeal You signed a dirty deal Let me lay my story down, people I was a dummy, not a clown, people I'm gettin hard to be around, people So welcome to the real world Where trouble loves a pretty girl With compound interest drifting scum Bite your blood until it runs Simple people Praise The Lord Smarter people Steal and Hoard If I was the President I couldn't change their evil bent Still and all, the way I feel is I signed a dirty deal
