[Part I]

[Verse 1]
See the way the wind blows, lives are intertwined
Watch the way the world goes, the man deals out our plight
Jester in the corner laughs without a sound
Jester in the corner, malady abounds

[Refrain 1]
In our souls
In our souls
In our souls

[Verse 2]
See the way the sun sets, twilight of this life
The man is making little bets playing with our lives
All that I believe now, anything is possible
A simple explanation for the evil in this world

[Refrain 2]
And in our souls
In our souls
In our souls
In our souls

[Part II]
[Interlude 1]
Hoo-hoo, go!

[Verse 3]
Come down to sorry and sable, it's always the man
It's always been keeping you down
Bow down 'cause I see it before me, shadow and light
That always keeps you runnin'

[Chorus 1]
Ho-ho, shut up, you talk too much
Ho-ho-ho, pay the man, now, yeah
Ho-ho, shut up, you talk too much
Ho-ho, no (No, no)

[Verse 4]
Look at you and your struggle for freedom, but you ain't nothin'
We all pay the man for living
Wouldn't it be nice for a change, now, to be unchained?
My life is for me now

[Bridge]
But, this is life, this is life
This is life, this is life
Pay the man (No!), pay the man (No!)
Pay the man (No!), it's the man (No, no, no!)
[Chorus 1]
Ho-ho, shut up, you talk too much
Ho-ho-ho, pay the man, now, yeah
Ho-ho, shut up, you talk too much
Ho-ho-ho

[Interlude 2]
Hoo-hoo, go!
Ho-oh
Ho-oh
Ho-oh (Don't! No!)
Ho-oh (Stop! Oh)

[Chorus 2]
Ho-ho, shut up, you talk too much
Ho-ho-ho, pay the man, now, yeah

[Outro]
My life is for me, ho-ho-ho

[Part III: Pretty Fly for a White Guy (Reprise)]

[Verse]
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis
And all the girlies say, I'm pretty fly for a white guy
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis
