Brent Walsh
The Hound and the Fox (Jazz Version)
[Verse 1]
No sleep for the sick
Been stayin' up too late
Draining out the chemicals
Trying not to make mistakes
Little do they know that any given day
I'll expose all their hypocrisies
And let out my rage

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, tell me this:
If you can say it to the public
Why can't you say that shit to your kids?
Don't act like money's not the factor
You're an actor

[Chorus]
And it would blow everybody's mind
If they could see just what lies behind
The velvet curtain, the office doors
They've got no choice, they've got no choice

[Verse 2]
I can't catch my breath, been working to the bone
Dottin' all the "i's" and crossin' every "t" I own
This ain't pullin' thread, no, baby this is war
I'll be the cog to end their cash machine
They'll rue the day the hound came to their door
[Pre-Chorus]
The real crooks ain't wearin' ski masks
No, they're walkin' around in suits
They feed us lies in American wrapping
They're just acting

[Chorus]
And it would blow everybody's mind
If they could see just what lies behind
The velvet curtain, the office doors
They've got no choice (Hey!)
(Alright, pick it up boys!)

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
And it would blow everybody's mind
If they could see, yeah, just what lies, lies behind
The velvet curtain, the office doors
I'll give them no choice
I've got my voice
