lyrics

It's a cheap place to be,
When the curtain is falling,
And no one can see,
That your world just ain't right...no no,

And your bag it will open,
And the carpets come tumbling,
And the dust it will smother you up with your lies,

It's a cheap place to be,
When ambition it burns you,
And no one can see the red flame in your eyes...no no,

And your bag it will open,
And the children will haunt you,
And your nightmares will be filled with refugee lies,

It's a cheap place to be,
When your greed it can't fill you,
And no one can taste the great hunger you feel...no no,

And your bag it will open,
And money comes rolling,
And it fills up your gut with a guilt you can't heal,

Empty your bag, open your eyes,
Empty your bag, open your eyes,
