Pied Piper

It's not so hard to understand what people see in you

You tell them it's o.k. to have their cake and eat it too

You traded truth for Godless gain and no one will suspect

You're such a clever counterfeit of all that you reject

Pied Piper playing the tune they want to hear

Putting a tickle in their ear

Pied Piper wanting them all to follow you

No knowing where you lead them to

But all the time you're leading them astray

The sheep just sit there grinning as they listen to your lies

Never knowing when you pull the wool over their eyes

You've got them trained to say "How high"

Whenever you say jump

And those who disagree with you

You always seem to stump

You may not mean to harm a soul

You say you're innocent

But when the final tally comes

You made more than you spent

You knew they'd have to pay

The price of listening to you

You knew before too long

They'd have to pay the Piper too
