lyrics

HEEL NIPPERS’ ANTHEM

Hey there mister governor whose only aim is growth
You forget you took an oath, for the benefit of most
And though you say you're clean your expense account's unreal
We're hot on your heels

Hey there monster man who's making chemical concoctions
Your effluent is noxious, your promises to stop it
We don't care for your excuses nor care for your sweet deals
We're hot on your heels

Hot on your heels, how does it feel?
Hot on your heels
Hot on your tail and your rotten sweet deals
Watching the sales, watching you steal
Hot on your tail, we'll unravel the knot
We've got the mail, you've got us hot on your heels
Hot on your heels, hot on your heels

Hey there master scientists so brilliant at your sums
Who's to blame, you are the ones, the bulk of you make guns
You say it's all for peace and yet find new ways for kills
We're hot on your heels

Hot on your heels, how does it feel?
Hot on your heels
Hot on your tail and your rotten sweet deals
Watching the sales, watching you steal
Hot on your tail, we'll unravel the knot
We've got the mail, you've got us hot on your heels

Hot on your heels
Hot on your heels
Hot on your heels
