Snake Oil on CD = The High Cost of Living
He’s got the look, he’s got the talk
He’s got charisma, he can walk the walk
He may be selling today
But I’m not buying it, not buying his snake oil
She’s got the figure, she’s got the style
She’s got the come on down with the perfect smile
She may be charming today
But I’m not buying it, not buying her snake oil
Some people seem warm on the outside,
But they are cold and cruel on the inside.
They act real nice and friendly to everyone.
So when they do you dirty
Everyone thinks
You are the criminal
They’ve got the money, they’ve got the votes
They’ve got the contracts, hold all the notes
They may be dealing today
But I’m not buying it, not buying their snake oil
They’ve got the guns, they’ve got the spies
They’ve got the crosshairs on you and I
They may be pushing today
But I’m not buying it, not buying their snake oil
