lyrics
You've got a product, and properly labeled
It looks so much better when it sits in our stable
And the market is flush with such eager talent
And the hand will come through, to push out the defiant
And all of the pieces are moved into position
And the invisible hand takes another victim
Major chords play effigy so that we know
The culture is a vulture and it's picking our bones
Sign on a line, make up an excuse
Your soul may be searching, but your head is in a noose
And the rope it grows tighter when you find in the end
That your art is expendable
And the hand swipes again
And all of these pawns are moved into position
And the invisible hand takes another victim
Major chords play effigy so that you know
The culture is a vulture and it's picking my bones
The end result is never the end when you find
That the need to make more is the need to define
The need to keep moving the need to say afloat.
Even as the hand gets it's clutches on your throat
It looks so much better when it sits in our stable
And the market is flush with such eager talent
And the hand will come through, to push out the defiant
And all of the pieces are moved into position
And the invisible hand takes another victim
Major chords play effigy so that we know
The culture is a vulture and it's picking our bones
Sign on a line, make up an excuse
Your soul may be searching, but your head is in a noose
And the rope it grows tighter when you find in the end
That your art is expendable
And the hand swipes again
And all of these pawns are moved into position
And the invisible hand takes another victim
Major chords play effigy so that you know
The culture is a vulture and it's picking my bones
The end result is never the end when you find
That the need to make more is the need to define
The need to keep moving the need to say afloat.
Even as the hand gets it's clutches on your throat
