Lyrics
Ruder Than Roots
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.
I watch them on my TV, I hear them on my radio
Music is an industry and this is their Freakshow:
Little boys & little girls in the hands
Of power, money & greed
Senseless music for senseless minds
It sells! It's hype!!!
You're one of them if you buy what they sell you
You're one of them if you dress like they tell you
We don't care! We're not scared! (Cause..)
We're Rude - Ruder than Roots
We're Rough - Rougher than you
We're Rude - Ruder than Roots
We're Rough - Rougher than you
I watch them on my TV, I hear them on my radio
Politic's an industry and this is their Talkshow
This is you & this is me in the hands
Of power, money & greed
Senseless work for a senseless wage
This is a new age!
You're one of them if you buy what they sell you
You're one of them if you do like they tell you
We don't care! We're not scared! (Cause..)
We're Rude - Ruder than Roots
We're Rough - Rougher than you
We're Rude - Ruder than Roots
We're Rough - Rougher than you
