The Vinyl Goods

Lyrics

Struggling in the rat race
Just trying to keep ahead
Scrambling for incentives
'Til the day you're dead

From out of the dark comes
The parasite again
No inspiration of its own
It feeds on you instead

Keeping the wolves away
Doing it every day
Try to secure my place
By keeping the wolves away

Jesus is their enemy
The lawyer is a friend
Gettin' somethin' for nothin'
Is how they get ahead

Keeping the wolves away
Doing it every day
Try to secure my place
By keeping the wolves away

They're gnawing at your heels
Looking for another meal
On the prowl for any loss
Make a gain at any cost
They try, they try, they try, they try, yeah they're gonna try,
To grab a piece of anything to stay alive

Keeping the wolves away
Keeping the pack at bay
