We'll never get free Lamb to the slaughter What you gon' do When there's blood in the water? The price of your greed Is your son and your daughter What you gon' do When there's blood in the water? Look me in my eyes Tell me everything's not fine Or the people ain't happy And the river has run dry You thought you could go free But the system is done for If you listen real closely There's a knock at your front door We'll never get free Lamb to the slaughter What you gon' do When there's blood in the water? The price of your greed Is your son and your daughter What you gon' do When there's blood in the water? When there's blood in the When there's blood in the Beg me for mercy Admit you were toxic You poisoned me just for Another dollar in your pocket Now I am the violence I am the sickness Won't accept your silence Beg me for forgiveness We'll never get free Lamb to the slaughter What you gon' do When there's blood in the water? The price of your greed Is your son and your daughter What you gon' do When there's blood in the water? When there's blood in the water When there's blood in the I am the people I am the storm I am the riot I am the swarm When the last tree's fallen The animal can't hide Money won't solve it What's your alibi? What's your alibi? What's your alibi? What you gon' do when there's blood in the, blood in the water? When there's blood in the water When there's blood in the When there's blood in the water
