Jesse Dayton Belly Of The Beast Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The barbarians are at the gate
Doing everything they can to break through
And my TV has been spouting hate
And my country's divided red and blue

And the working man, he can't catch a break
'Cause the corporation's niggling down his ass
Now we can smell the desperation
While the politicians sitting on a mountain of cash

[Chorus]
Well, folks are hungry and you promised them a feast
While you're waiting inside the belly of the beast
You knock 'em down and pray to the high priest
Waiting on heaven in the belly of the beast

[Verse 2]
Well the headlines, they're all the same
'Cause they threw out all the rules of the game
Now when the sun shines, well, they'll tell you it's rain
'Cause the lawyers fix damn near anything And these fat cats, they're buying up the land
While the working class prepares for a hand to hand
It's a money trail, all on the take
While they're sitting back waiting for it all to break
Yeah
[Chorus]
Well, folks are hungry and you promised them a feast
While you're waiting inside the belly of the beast
You knock 'em down and pray to the high priest
Waiting on heaven in the belly of the beast

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Folks are hungry and you promised them a feast
While you're waiting inside the belly of the beast
You knock 'em down and pray to the high priest
Waiting on heaven in the belly of the beast
Yeah, waiting on heaven in the belly of the beast
Waiting on heaven in the belly of the beast
