Boat’s about to sink, you’re on the brink.
Savin’ yourself is all you can think
In a quagmire, suckin’ up to the higher;
Selling your fire to the biggest empire.
And when it’s time for ‘batter up,’ the fears erupt.
Your lips pucker up, your knees buckle up.
Your soul suckers up, as your eyes go shut.
As you sink back down to the mindless rut
(Of a) Little too much, kissin’ butt.
(there’s a) little too much, kissin’ butt.
Your nose is turning brown, your knees on the ground,
Your head goes down whenever power comes around.
Acting like sheep, always in retreat.
Never see the forest ‘cause you’re starin’ at a tree.
When it’s time to take a stand, and be counted on again,
You hide like a clam, buried in the sand.
And when the shit hits the fan, the going gets rough,
You wallow in the smut of the useless smut.
(Of a) little too much, kissin’ butt.
(There’s a little too much, kissin’ butt.
[Refrain] Underneath the table, like a dog on a leash,
Livin’ off the crumbs of an autocratic feast.
Crawling on all fours, in the belly of the beast.
All this slavishness is really getting’ to me!
Forever self-absorbed and emotionally bored,
Always moving toward what you can’t afford.
Following the hoard, looking for a reward.
From a system whose Lord, is livin’ by the sword.
When things get hot, you’re put on the spot,
You opt to sit and not ever get off the pot.
Throw in your lot with the mutts and the nuts,
Groveling at the feet of the hungry sluts –
There’s a little too much kissin’ butt. (4X)
