lyrics

see the way the wind blows lives are intertwined
watch the way the world goes the man deals out our plight
jester is the corner laughs without a sound
jester in the corner malady abounds in our souls
see the way the sun sets twilight of this life 
the man is making little bets playing with our lives
all that i believe now anything is possible a simple explanation
for the evil in this world and in our souls in our souls
come down to sorry and sable it's always the man always keeping you down
bow down cause i see it before me shadow and light
that always keeps you running
shut up you talk to much, pay the man, shut up you talk to much
look at you and your struggle for freedom 
but you ain't nothing we all pay the man for living 
wouldn't it be nice for a change now to be unchained 
my life is for me but this is life
pay the man, shut up you talk to much, pay the man
