lyrics

Oh buttercup I just wanna tell ya
Don't believe everything your told
Oh buttercup let me break it to ya
I believe you're a long long way from home

But if you get in line, pay your dues in time
Get in line, pay your dues in time
Get in line, pay your dues in time
Get in line, pay your dues in time
You'll be rewarded with a cold blanket of earth
To call your own

Oh buttercup you'll just have to trust us
Forget everything you think you know
The game is fixed a foregone conclusion
You may be on top now but you know

Soon in the gutter you'll go
Like all the ones before you
An eager supply of drones
All waiting for the chance to take your place

No silver lining shining up on high up in the clouds
No home safe harbor, to turn to when you're down
But I'll take you from this, save you from yourself
You'll be mine all mine
