Cage The Elephant - Judas текст песни

The time has finally come you get a mouth full,
You only act on greed and by your actions this is proof.
And can't you see the flowers dying all around you?
Got your hands in the devils pockets, got everything to lose.

And so you lash out to crush the ones below,
All the ones that you fear most.
And you call this crowd control,
Well, let me break it down for you.

The fire in your veins is just a joke you tell yourself,
Another way to cut the cost, hide your face from all the guilt.
And it's a shame to have to say you had to kill to gain control.
But at least you made some money, hey let the good times roll!

It's your dream to be the king of all creation,
As far as I'm concerned you've hung your shadow on the wall.
And though your fingers never really pulled the trigger,
Your hands are just as guilty, you're the one who brought the blood.

Again you lash out to hush the ones who know,
'Cause they're the ones that you fear most.
And it's called damage control.
Well, let me break it down for you!

The fire in your veins is just a joke you tell yourself,
Another way to cut the cost, hide your face from all the guilt.
And it's a shame to have to say you had to kill to gain control,
But at least you made some money, hey, let the good times roll!

Oh my, the greed has now consumed you,
Your eyes fade as you fall into the ocean.
You move fast to feed your lust for money,
You dive down now you're caught in the commotion.

All this and you traded it for nothing,
A cheap lie you put it in your pocket.
All this, yeah you traded it for nothing,
Oh my, I can see your heart has met its end...

Say hello to Judas, say hello to Judas!
Say hello to Judas, say hello to Judas!
Say hello to Judas, say hello to Judas!
Say hello to Judas, oh...
