Krokus - Eat The Rich Lyrics






I've been down, I've been beat, I've been tossed into the street
Beggin' nickels, beggin' dimes just to get my bottle of wine

Some say life she's a lady, kinda soft, kinda shady
I can tell you life is rich, she's no lady, she's a bitch

They suck my body out, but friend there is no doubt
I'm gonna pay the devil his dues, 'cause I'm sick of being abused

Eat the rich, eat the rich, don't you know life is a bitch
Eat the rich, eat the rich, out of the palace and into the ditch

Steal my money, steal my car, took my woman and my old guitar
Runnin' crazy, runnin' wild, blind alley in my mind

Just can't fight the temptation it's become my inspiration
Gonna get myself an axe, break some heads, break some backs

They suck my body out, but friend there is no doubt
I'm gonna pay the devil his dues, 'cause I'm sick of being abused

Eat the rich, eat the rich, don't you know life is a bitch
Eat the rich, eat the rich, out of the palace and into the ditch

Don't stop me

Eat the rich, eat the rich, don't you know life is a bitch
Eat the rich, eat the rich, out of the palace and into the ditch

Eat the rich, eat the rich, don't you know life is a bitch
Eat the rich, eat the rich, out of the palace and into the ditch

Out of the palace and into the ditch
They suck my body out

    I rocked out to this song in the 80's and now the song brings to mind the increasing divide between between the ultra-rich 1% and everybody else in the U.S. We either stay enslaved sheep, helping the rich get richer, or we storm the mansions and topple the Monopoly.

    f.... ....

    If you "topple the monopoly" you get toppled as well as everyone else, no good can come from "stealing" no matter how much they have

  13. H.... H....

    Krokus was rich. Did they eat themselves? Either way, I loved this shit when I was in junior high in the 80s.
