Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah Yeehaw! [Verse 1] Covered in sinners and dripping with guilt Making your money From slime and from filth Parading your bellies in ivory towers Investing our lives In your schemes and your powers [Chorus] You've got to watch them Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven The thief's in your head You've got to watch them Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven The thief in your head [Post-Chorus] Be quick or be dead Be quick (quick, quick, quick) Or be dead (dead, dead, dead) [Bridge] See what's ruling all our lives See who's pulling strings See what's ruling all our lives See who pulls the strings I bet you won't fall on your face Your belly will hold you in place [Verse 2] The serpent is crawling inside of your ear He says you must vote For what you want to hear Don't matter what's wrong As long as you're all right So, pull yourself stupid, rob yourself blind [Chorus] You've got to watch them Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven The thief's in your head You've got to watch them Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven The thief's in your head [Post-Chorus] Be quick or be dead Be quick (quick, quick, quick) Or be dead (dead, dead, dead) [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] You've got to watch them Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven The thief's in your head You've got to watch them Be quick or be dead Snake eyes in heaven The thief's in your head [Outro] Be quick or be dead Be quick
