To tell the truth they've lied to you
In the realm of reality matters
It's what they do and before they're through
They'll line their pockets fatter

The secrecy that they keep
To make you think that you are free
Most every thing that you believe
Comes from their pockets deep

Those you listen to might say to you
The truth is unbelievable
And what you knew or intended to
Is in the hands of the Pocket People

In their daily moves they blindfold you
Without a cigarette
Then do to you what they want to
Having no regrets

All's not lost as you count the cost
Adding pennies to your spare change
Oh I almost forgot, you silly lot
They'll take it all away

With you on your toes they've grown to know
Forever you'll be needful
Their only hope at the short end of your rope
You'll give it all to the Pocket People
