Hogs at the trough Lyrics

They walk in broke, but they walk out rich

A hundred grand salary, but livin' like a prince

Private jets, big estates, deals behind closed doors

Tell me how a politician's worth millions more?

They send our money to lands far away

Call it foreign aid, but it don't stay

It takes a detour, through a secret route

Swiss accounts and a dictator's new yacht on the blue

Hogs at the trough, they're feedin' again

Stuffin' their pockets with the money we send

Cut 'em off, but they find a new way

Greedy hands reachin' for that payday

Hogs at the trough, they never get full

Hungry for power, hungry for control

They'll do anything, they'll sell it all

Just to keep on feedin' while the empire falls

They shake your hand, tell you they care

But they're countin' their kickbacks from a leather chair

They say it's charity, say it's for peace

But it's funding their friends in the Middle East

The money goes out, never comes back

Stacked in a vault, under lock and brass

And when the people start askin' why

They just change the subject, spin another lie

Hogs at the trough, they're feedin' again

Stuffin' their pockets with the money we send

Cut 'em off, but they find a new way

Greedy hands reachin' for that payday

Hogs at the trough, they never get full

Hungry for power, hungry for control

They'll do anything, they'll sell it all

Just to keep on feedin' while the empire falls

They say it's for the children, say it's for the poor

But they're buyin' up islands, buildin' up more

Gold-plated palaces, watches that shine

While we workin' harder, barely gettin' by

Now they're gettin' nervous, the heat's turned up

The people are talkin', we've had enough

But the hogs keep chompin', still playin' the game

Gotta drain the swamp, gotta call out names

Hogs at the trough, they're feedin' again

Stuffin' their pockets with the money we send

Cut 'em off, but they find a new way

Greedy hands reachin' for that payday

Hogs at the trough, they never get full

Hungry for power, hungry for control

They'll do anything, they'll sell it all

Just to keep on feedin' while the empire falls

No more lyin', no more disguise

We see the hunger burnin' in their eyes

Time to stand up, time to call the bluff

Time to clean out the hogs at the trough!
