Cathy tried to make me her puppet again
Again and again I just laughed in the end
  
Kathy said don't use me boy
You're gonna get it in the end
Never try to use my name again
You never were one.  Press send
  
I hate you people.  You capitalist
Using us to get ahead
Isn't it time to grow up now
or maybe just go to bed
  
Oh, here comes another one
Country man learning to turn his head
Comparing himself to history
She's cheering him on instead
  
Stop that!  Using my name she cried
I never want to hear it again
You're only trying to capitalize
Before we lend it out again
  
Isn't it funny, how one kissing cousin
Can lie, then claim I don't exist
The other one spits after she benefits
Stating, "only if he is still rich."
  
Black man, white man, both in chains
The government tightened its grip
Some day, some way, they will still explain
Why they work us 'till we still slip
  
Sip another shot of this one, dear
We can use the cash from it
Even though we know the end is near
We can not forget what's said
