Eat the Rich
Spin and twirl on the floor
Let the music take you away
Dance like never before
Dance till the light of day
Let them cry outside
In here is your domain
Let them starve outside
Let them die of plague
In here you are safe
Out of eternity's reaching grasp
Away from the peasants' blame
You and the devil laugh
Then the front doors break
The mob swarms in with a crash
Your arms are bound in chains
Your safety burned to ash
You're kicked and dragged outside
A rope thrown around your neck
You can see the hate in their eyes
You can smell it on their breath
The starving mob, they cry
Calling for your death
Their chants reach up to the sky
"Eat the rich! Eat the rich! Eat the rich!"
