Lie Detector

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We have reviewed your yellow form Congratulations! We find you qualified You have just the right capacity For putting up with our nonsense There's just one thing you've got to prove We know how you must be dishonest and lazy If you're so desperate You actually want to work at this place [Chorus] You must be guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) Guilty till you're proven innocent These days... [Verse 2] Blood pressure clamps around your arms Now, don't get nervous when we yell in your face We know you steal; just who do you screw? With what?! With who?! Aren't you a Christian?! The polygraph, don't make it move One little twitch, the anvil drops on you Don't matter if you told the truth We want your facial egg for our file [Chorus] Now you're guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) Guilty till you're proven innocent These days Till proven innocent These days [Refrain] Marsh Aha [Bridge] Guilty till proven innocent Guilty, it says so on your face Guilty when you try to find (Guilty) A place to live or a job that pays Guilty when you file a complaint (Guilty) Against the cop that kicked Your face last night Guilty, it says so on page three Guilty, who'd think a guy like me Would plant drugs in your car? Break in your house while you're asleep? Open your mouth, bet your ass you're watched And it's your word against ours [Verse 3] Yeah, just because we're hiring you No, that don't mean that we trust you at all You'll have to take a test like this Once or twice every week We know machines, they make mistakes And it's your word against our deaf, black box The machine is always right 'Cause we know how it makes you feel so small [Chorus] Already guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) Guilty till you're proven innocent You are guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) You're guilty (Lie detector) Guilty till you're proven innocent These days Proven innocent These days [Outro] 'Cause when you're innocent When you're innocent When you're innocent It just don't pay
