Thieves Incubus

[Verse 1]
You're happy all the time
I just don't understand why I can't be happy too
Your smiles are salt in the wound
A slap upon a back that's been toiling in the sun

[Pre-Chorus]
And when will I get mine
Or must I be a God-fearing, white American?
And oh, everything is fine
As long as you're a God-fearing, white American

[Chorus]
Why should the thieves have all of the fun?
Selling us water by the river, they don't speak for everyone
I'm ready to run and you're makin' me crawl
Selling me water by the river, they don't speak for me at all

[Verse 2]
Oh, the man about the town
The beauty queen, the paragon of civilization
But shadows cling to us all
Even those convinced that they're sheltered and immune

[Pre-Chorus]
A-when will I get mine
Or must I be a God-fearing, white American? Yeah
