For all your sanctimony
Your only god is money
And on profit’s altar
You offer sons and daughters
Mammon tempts - Moloch devours
The white shroud you don
Does nothing to conceal
The darkening stains
Of innocent blood spilled
Venom of the corrupt
Sipped from poisoned cup
Your words ring hollow
Deception proves shallow
Plead your ignorance
Play on intolerance
Lips mouth denial
Platitudes turn bile
Lives ravaged and cut short
Button-down demons hold court
Mammon tempts - Moloch devours
Children die for wealth of cowards
Bureaucracy your only shield
When venality stands revealed
Your only god is money
And on profit’s altar
You offer sons and daughters
Mammon tempts - Moloch devours
The white shroud you don
Does nothing to conceal
The darkening stains
Of innocent blood spilled
Venom of the corrupt
Sipped from poisoned cup
Your words ring hollow
Deception proves shallow
Plead your ignorance
Play on intolerance
Lips mouth denial
Platitudes turn bile
Lives ravaged and cut short
Button-down demons hold court
Mammon tempts - Moloch devours
Children die for wealth of cowards
Bureaucracy your only shield
When venality stands revealed
