Working a job that you can't hardly stand Giving the days and the nights to the man "Yes, sir" and "no, sir" and come when they holler The things we do just for a dollar The huckster's hands that are folding to pray Will sell you forever to give up today Supply and demand it while the decency falters The things we take just for a dollar It's an eye for an eye in a dog-eat-dog world For the glow and the glitter and shine of the pearl Every year makes you a little bit smaller The things we do just for a dollar Give up your voice for the company line One more disciple at the table to dine Put your chin up, button your collar The things we join just for a dollar Pray for forgiveness and start a clean slate Blood money made good gets passed in the plate Damascus has found you, the spirit's true caller We'll forget just for a dollar It's an eye for an eye in a dog-eat-dog world For the glow and the glitter and shine of the pearl Every year makes you a little bit smaller The things we do just for a dollar They give you a nod, they give you a wave They make you a coffin and dig you a grave Don't have to be poet, a sage, or a scholar To know what it means for a dollar A proletariat dies and another is born The new order thrives the great oath is sworn You can't ever change it so don't even bother It'll always be just for a dollar It's an eye for an eye in a dog-eat-dog world For the glow and the glitter and shine of the pearl Every year makes you a little bit smaller The things we do just for a dollar It's an eye for an eye in a dog-eat-dog world For the glow and the glitter and shine of the pearl Every year makes you a little bit smaller The things we do just for a dollar
