Ladies and gents, fold your tents, ´cause we have a winner Come see your Jane try to train every devil in her
There´s not a man alive who could tame this creature You better leave the professor behind, see what time will teach her
And when we´ve all collected a spectacular sum We´ll get a little glimpse of the disaster to come
You can justify what happens then ´Cause how could you have known Leave the dust to dust and say "Amen" Put "Sorry" on the stone You´re not not your brother´s keeper, now Your brother´s on his own That´s how the seeds of avarice are sown
Shit´s just a trick and each week´s full of compromises She´ll push for a fish like a seal clapping for its prizes There´s not a man alive who could wake this sleeper Oh, tie the rope, hide the dope, sure there´s hope, but denial´s cheaper
And when´ve all collected a spectacular sum We´ll get a Holy Roller in to rattle the drum
You can justify what happens then ´Cause how could you have known Leave the dust to dust and say "Amen"
Put "Sorry" on the stone You´re not your brother´s keeper, now Your brother´s on his own That´s how the seeds of avarice are sown
And after the fail, you can wail as they drag the river Silence the band, wring the hand that you didn´t give her And every man alive has to sign a waiver To put a coin in the plate, so that fate won´t return the favor
You can justify, oh yes you can You´ve got the microphone Tell them dust is dust and men are men
And men all act alone You´re not your brother´s keeper, now Your brother´s on his own That´s how the seeds of avarice are sown How the seeds of avarice are sown
