A political song for the times at hand.

lyrics

EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF
We only know what they tell us
They only tell us what they want us hear
If there’s a beast in the cellar
They’ll tell you that there’s nothing to fear
CHORUS
No one’s looking out for you
That’s one thing that you know is true
It’s every man for himself
Every man for himself

If you’re caught in the middle
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
You know you can’t trust the devil
You better jump in the water to flee
CHORUS
No one’s looking out for you
That’s one thing that you know is true
It’s every man for himself
Every man for himself
In the shadow of the gaslight
It’s hardtop see which way to go
It looks like were headed down down down
To what nobody knows
CHORUS
No one’s looking out for you
That’s one thing that you know is true
It’s every man for himself
Every man for himself
Every man for himself
Every man for himself
Every man for himself
Every man for himself
Every man for himself
Every man for himself
