Top dogs settle to Kirribilli House
Gimme a can of kerosene and it get liberally doused
Miserable louts, you made my home a target for terrorists
And you created wealth and then we see you not sharing it
You were staring down the barrel of some pissed off youths
If you hypocrites on fire they wouldn't piss on you
They saw you and your cronies all rotting the system
So they
What's the fucking difference?
Only a couple of million, not counting the super
And then if you want less than 50g, you out of the loop
Like the rich have got the better tax accountants
Like the ones who made out of Packer's mountains
So for six years counting, I haven't paid a cent
And if my HECS debt hit, I couldn't pay the rent
Don't forget that these cunts have got a free education
Now the same ones that talk of mutual obligation
Lay back and take the pay packet
Top dogs all play the same racket
Long lunches, cars and hotels
The boss don't know so don't tell
Lay back and take the pay packet
Top dogs all play the same racket
Long lunches, cars and hotels
The boss don't know so don't tell
He rode the elevator to the seventh floor
Sweaty palms, collar tight as he walked into the boardroom
Trying to look convincing in his ill-fitting suit
He took his place before the panel for the job interview
"Now how could you contribute?" the questions came
He's only in it for the loot but he's still playing the game
And telling them what they wanted to hear
'Bout how the advertised appointment was his dream career
The office monkey, he got the job, great petition
Grey desk, grey suit, grey hair, great position
Great hustles, he had the promos in the post
After hours photocopying the flyers for shows
Long distance phone calls, international faxes
But soon enough his actions caught his manager's eye
Written warning, last chance, he was put on probation
"Fine, fire me," he said, "But think
About the piss you're taking when you"
Lay back and take the pay packet
Top dogs all play the same racket
Long lunches, cars and hotels
The boss don't know so don't tell
Lay back and take the pay packet
Top dogs all play the same racket
Long lunches, cars and hotels
The boss don't know so don't tell
"Frankly, I'm just about sick to death of it. There's no corruption
Story. I'm not gonna step down, I'm not gonna resign
There's nothing... there's nothing there. I'm not
Gonna resign in any case over a good deed. There's no
Corruption there. It's simply an act of good faith."
Look me in the eye, say you never saw it coming
Image buyer, good will hunting, by any means nothing
We stand talking while minimum wage keeps cutting
You wedge me in and expect me to watch you keep cutting
Dog lunch and mixed with cricket your bait
You can consider this a tribute to the shit that you pay
Casual rates, evict us and then shutting the drapes
Lower the conditions, no one will appeal for the place
You can have your caviar, ma'am, I'll keep my crumbs
Paychecks, a base salary, I'll manually add sums
So bang your hand drums, whip production offshore
What John will stop calls through cracks in the shop floor
What? You're wanting me to be loyal to this chain?
This bullshit name paying me this short change?
People have their revenge range
You know what I'm saying, we speak the same
Lay back and take the pay packet
Top dogs all play the same racket
Long lunches, cars and hotels
The boss don't know so don't tell
Lay back and take the pay packet
Top dogs all play the same racket
Long lunches, cars and hotels
The boss don't know so don't tell
