in the land of the pigs the butcher is king

Meat Loaf

Look at them now
What do they want?
And what do they do now?
Nothing at all!

What do they know?
What do they think?
And who do they tell?
Well, no one at all!

Lives are truely meaningless
And we are busy being blessed

With that we can take and pocket
No one needs to know
We re is the plug and they re the socket
Give us the juice and we ll go

Can t you hear the choir now?
Listen to the animals sing!
Can t you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!

How do they sleep?
Their lives are so tart
Bring me the trash collectors
Cause they re nothing but trash

What do you expect?
They ve got no standards
So we lower the bar
Cause they re waiting for us

We ll open up Pandora s Box
Pandora gave her keys and locks

They re the big dogs waiting for their mother
Come to the confessional
So I can tell you all to bugger off
There s no time like now!

Can t you hear the choir now?
Listen to the animals sing!
Can t you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!

Can t you hear the choir now?
Listen to the market-place sing!
Can t you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king...

And we ll do it our way
It s our time to play
We know what to say
They stand in our way
Don t stand in our way
No time like today...

Can t you hear the choir now?
Listen to the anthems we sing!
Can t you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!

Can t you hear the choir now?
Listen to the animals sing!
Can t you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!

Can t you hear the choir now?
Listen to the chosen ones sing!
Can t you hear the slaughterhouse bells?
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king!
In the land of the pigs the butcher is king...
