Who put the name of a villain
On the ballot box?
Who watched overdose poor souls
Slaving down in the docks?
I was there on the lifeboats
All shattered on the rocks
And sometimes I think that death itself
Is kind of unorthodox
And now you want me to save you?
And now you say you're a believer?
Where have you been when I gave you
Life?
Many small town politicians
Put their fate in my hands
But I witnessed the governor
Selling off all the native land, yeah
I must admit it kind of pissed me off
I bet now you couldn't tell
I'll be your next wave pandemic
House party in your cells
And now you want me to save you?
Oh, now you say you're a believer?
Where have you been when I gave you
Life?
Ain't gonna please you, please you
Not today
No, no
I hate to break it, break it to you
Not today
No, no, no
I'll be your shadow in your conscience
But I don't make no new friends
Snack on my popcorn and I stick around
Let's start it off for a happy end
And now you want me to save you?
Now you say you're a believer?
Where have you been when I gave you
Life?
And now you want me to save you?
Oh, now you say you're a believer?
Where have you been when I gave you
Life? Ay
Ain't gonna please you, please you
Not today
No, no
I hate to break it, break it to you
Not today
No, no, no
Ain't gonna please you, please you
Not today
No, no
I hate to break it, break it to you
Not today
Not today
No, no, no
Not today
Not today
Not today
