Working for the devil You’ll have to pay his tax That means going to see him Down among the racks’ You don’t believe in him But he can wait for you You do his work so fine He’ll remember you              (high) He’ll remember you (high) (high) 2x Worried for my friend As he shows me round the flat Where I don’t wanna find him His lips an’ eyelids black He don’t believe my speech That lines can and should be drawn Lke if he had a shotgun The barrels would be sawn The barrels would be sawn Swallowed by the river Swollen by the rains That leakin’ ol’ computer Of fingerprints and names Swimming in the river That floods the neighborhood I would call to you But it would do no good But it would do no good Voting for the law That’s the general occupation First comes the public safety Second comes the nation You won’t believe me now But there’s been some illumination The wisest cops have realized They fucked the operation Cooking up the books A respected occupation The anchor and foundation of multi-corporations They don’t believe in crime They don’t know that it exists But to understand What’s right and wrong The lawyers work in shifts The lawyers work in shifts (little solo bit here.)   (Just jam around 12th fret on and E strings)   ’N speaking of the devil He ain’t been seen for years ’Cept every 20 mins He zooms between me ears I don’t believe in books But I read all the time For ciphers to the riddles An’ reasons to the rhymes (Let E ring and some feedback) _______________________________________________________ Contribuição: rodrigo alan feltrin ferraz([email protected])

La chanson aborde les thèmes de la corruption et des conséquences des choix que l'on fait. Elle évoque un personnage qui, bien qu'il ne croie pas en des forces obscures, se rend compte qu'il agit pour elles, et cela lui coûtera cher. On y parle de l'influence néfaste qui peut ronger la société, des personnes qui trichent et exploitent les systèmes en place, tout en soulignant la désillusion de ceux qui tentent de faire la différence. Le contexte semble refléter une critique acerbe de la société moderne, où les lois sont manipulées et où l'intégrité est souvent mise de côté au profit de l'intérêt personnel. Les références à des amis en danger et à une lutte contre des forces invisibles insistent sur la lutte intérieure que l'on peut ressentir face à ces injustices.
