Covered in sinners and dripping with guilt

Making you money from slime and from filth

Parading your bellies in ivory towers

Investing our lives in your schemes and your powers

You got to watch them - Be quick or be dead

Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head

You've got to watch them - Be quick or be dead

Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head...

Be quick! Or be dead!

Be quick! Or be dead!

See... what's ruling all our lives,

See... who's pulling the 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

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 alright

So pull yourself stupid and rob yourself blind

You got to watch them - Be quick or be dead

Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head

You've got to watch them - Be quick or be dead

Snake eyes in heaven - The thief's in your head...

Be quick! Or be dead!

Be quick! Or be dead!

You got to watch them - Be quick or be dead

Snake eyes in heaven - The thief in your head

You've got to watch them - Be quick or be dead

Snake eyes in heaven - The thief's in your head...

Be quick! Or be dead!

Be quick!
