The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They thought you'd come with a bang
New age to end all their fears
Lightnings would flash, steel would clang
It was a gift, not a joke
Mercy is dead - what a shame
Culture has gone up in smoke
A life and a riff worth the same...
Hope I'm not being unwise
But your price isn't too high
I must admit I despise
Stuck in this place for ages
How to move on - you don't know
The battle in you still rages
Just find a moment to spare
The crowd will show you the game
Black bargain's on fair and square
A life and a riff worth the same...
Time to make shit more precise
Your pedigree is enough
To raise the minimum price
Souls goin' cheap, who's to blame?
Business don't make any sense
A life and a riff worth the same
Bidding is through, ain't no jive
Hammer comes down with a biff
25 Cents for a life and 25 cents for a riff
Bidding is through, ain't no jive
Hammer comes down with a biff
25 Cents for a life and 25 cents for a riff
