Met a creep who gets things done He told me I'm the number one He knew I was innocent I knew he was fucking bent He embraced me like a friend Showed me all his monuments I was impressed, what the hell Where I come from ain't much to tell Stealing all the way I feel As I signed the dirty deal System's rigged to favor crooks You don't find that in civic books It's not cool to ask a man To sign what he don't understand Guys found other guys were right Contract's starting, then the night And when truth is violent They'll hand you on a chain link fence Once you're in there's no appeal You signed the dirty deal Beware, beware! Dirty, it's dirty Once you're in there's no appeal You signed the dirty deal Beware, beware!Listen! Let the lame old story down people I was a dummy, not a clown, people I'm getting hard to be around people Warning, warning, beware, beware! Welcome to the real world Where trouble loves a pretty girl Your compound interest drifted, scum Bite your blood into it runs Simple people praise the lord Smarter people steal and hoard If I was the president I couldn't change their evil plans Stealing all the way I feel 'Cause I signed the dirty deal Dirty, it's dirty It's dirty, it's dirty out there The way I feel is I signed the dirty deal Beware, beware Dirty deal, dirty deal
