Everybody can be bought
I wish I was wrong, but I'm not
And everybody is for sale
They'll disappoint you without fail
And greed will win out in the end
there's nothing you can do about it, my friend
So make the best of what you got
'cause everybody can be bought
It might just be my perception
Maybe it's all in my mind
For every rule there are exceptions
No matter how hard I search,
I still find....
It took some time to figure out
The evidence leaves little doubt
And to the core it does rot
Everybody can be bought
I might sound cynical but I'm not
Everybody Can be bought
Everybody can be bought
I wish I was wrong, but I'm not...
