Slither slither Come hither From castle to castle We fear and hustle Every house a fortress Lock the gates at day Everyone wants your money Responsible for the poor Buy socks from a street vendor At an extravagant price Save money at the supermarket Because really your budget is tight Give cigarettes to the druggies At every traffic light Give what you have left over To charity; rids you of guilt But the oraters in the halls Of politics say you are the reason You are the cause The poor MUST commit treason

Slither slither Come hither From castle to castle We fear and hustle Every house a fortress Lock the gates at day Everyone wants your money Responsible for the poor Buy socks from a street vendor At an extravagant price Save money at the supermarket Because really your budget is tight Give cigarettes to the druggies At every traffic light Give what you have left over To charity; rids you of guilt But the oraters in the halls Of politics say you are the reason You are the cause The poor MUST commit treason
