Bullfight for an Empty Ring Lyrics by Five Iron Frenzy

Until This Shakes Apart

2021

[Verse 1]
This in memorandum: nil desperandum
I will read the news with reckless abandon
Another protest and the world is in distress
Another bomb explodes and another finger blames the press
Shoot before the arrest, guns for teachers, Kevlar vests
Cardboard for the homeless - cake to feed the dispossessed
So light the coal, your future is a dust bowl
You can't see the sun 'cause oil pays the bankroll
[Chorus]
Bullfight for an empty ring
Soundbites sing of your backstabbing
Bullfight for an еmpty ring
You can keep it all
Your avarice and coveting
[Verse 2]
They'rе making change for dollar bills in bullets
Steal the Black Hills, survival of the fullest
Just cock your Glock the market's looking bullish
Cinch up your millstone free enterprise will pull us
Death to those who disagree partisans like dominoes
Wolves in the assembly
Casting votes for Jesus' clothes
Nip at your heels, your mores up for auction
You fold your hands to pray only later just to wash them
[Chorus]
Bullfight for an empty ring
Soundbites sing of your backstabbing
Bullfight for an empty ring
You can keep it all
Your avarice and coveting
[Bridge]
For the lesser good, you bought the greater wrong
You have gained the world but lost your song
You could end the suffering, but all you want is everything
All you want is everything
All you want is everything
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Bullfight for an empty ring
Soundbites sing of your backstabbing
Bullfight for an empty ring
You can keep it all
Your avarice and coveting
