Melting Pot Lyrics
I met my girl
She was livin' in the melting pot
I touched her skin
It was greasy from the melting potGet yourself a weapon
'Cause they slice you up, in the melting pot
Well, I don't really have time to talk
But, I wish you lots of luck, in the melting potAnd in the end it's always just some game
The heartbreak, the laughter has all been in vain
Beat up and lied too, for your whole life
Kick you in the head, in the melting potThe hawks live upstairs
Where the air is clean, in the melting pot
They like to swoop down
And gnaw on your brain, in the melting potMoney, sex and power
Jerk you off, in the back seat of the melting pot
Then they say, I saw you last night
And sure you were looking sweet, in the melting potAnd in the end it's always just some game
Your heartbreak, the laughter has all been in vain
Beat up and lied too, for your whole life
Wanna kick you in the head, in the melting potHey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, heyAnd I could buy you off
If they possibly can, in the melting pot
With temptation and dreams and persuasion
That's what they got, in the melting potKeep you bleedin', beggin' and snotty here
In the melting pot
Well, don't you dare laugh out loud
Take away what you got, in the melting potAnd in the end it's always just some game
Your heartbreak, the laughter has all been in vain
Beat up and lied too, for your whole life
Kick you in the head, in, in, in the melting potHey, hey hey hey
Hey, hey hey hey
Hey, hey hey hey
Hey, hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey
