No pennies from heaven, no pennies in my hand
|
Think you're drinkin' wine dad, it's blood of the lamb
|
That's no way to treat your son, now is it, Abraham?
|
After he busted his ass for you
|
You've never known hunger, you never took a risk
|
Though you know you should, you know you'd never raise a fist
|
If the boss asked you to jump you know you'd finally be risked
|
That man talks down to you,
|
And you talk down to me too, now
|
|
Master and Slave in equal parts
|
Split down the middle, drinkin' doubles at the bar
|
Master and Slave, God bless you both
|
I got two for the price of one
|
Master and Slave in equal parts
|
Split down the middle, drinkin' doubles at the bar
|
Master and Slave, God bless you both
|
I got two for the price of one
|
Such a deal for your only son
|
|
When will this tension be all over
|
For fallen sons and fathers, too?
|
I'm down to my last dime
|
No faith in mankind
|
Come on let's swing into the groove, oh
|
|
Like Jack Horner backed up in a corner
|
But I never saw a slice of no pie
|
Ooo too busy standin' in line
|
Just waitin' for bread
|
But the father, he walks the water
|
Never tossed a nickel to his son
|
Ain't I your prodigal boy?
|
Ain't I your pride and joy?
|
|
Friends and Romans, I'm your brother
|
I'm scratchin' to hang on
|
The pursuit of happiness is just a carpetbagger's con
|
When a can of pork and beans could change my attitude
|
You won't give it up, but I coulda been you
|
While the masters and slaves scratch for pieces of the dream
|
For purple mountain majesties, whatever the hell that means
|
They give up on each other, and that's the way they get ahead
|
But I can still see the stars
|
Through these red, white, and blue prison bars
|
|
Master and Slave in equal parts
|
Split down the middle, drinkin' doubles at the bar
|
Master and Slave, God bless you both
|
I got two for the price of one
|
Master and Slave in equal parts
|
Split down the middle, drinkin' doubles at the bar
|
Master and Slave, God bless you both
|
I got two for the price of one
|
Such a deal for your only son
|
Master and slave, master, master and slave
|
Ooo master and slave
|
