With dirty second hands dirty second hands
You're not quite as tough as you thought
You bought the American rot
The very seed that you thought you shot
With dirty second hands dirty second hands
You might be right the fight might be right inside you
The blind leading the lied to
Tonight maybe you bind you with dirty second hands
