Lyrics Sirens - Dropkick Murphys

(Here comes the siren)

Our life and times have been maligned
Workin' three jobs at a time
When you're uninsured, then you can't save
How can you provide without a livin' wage?
If you wanna screw me, look me in the eye
When you turn a solemn promise to a blatant lie
One thing I'll never comprehend
Is how they turn us on our sisters, brothers, children
Neighbors, strangers and friends

The billionaire profits while the worker bleeds
One percent of the wealth hoards from millions in need
We're fightin' for the scraps
We struggle and suffer
We're fallin' for the trap
We're turnin' on each other
We're turnin' on each other
We're turnin' on each other

It takes money to make it, you did shit on your own
You were born into this, you were handed the throne
Generational wealth, a great gig if you got it
Keep us all down for a little more profit
Once hope is gone, the will disappears
It's the master plan, they've been at it for years
It's the final stage, this is how it ends
When they turn us on our sisters, brothers, children
Neighbors, strangers, and friends

The billionaire profits while the worker bleeds
One percent of the wealth hoards from millions in need
We're fightin' for the scraps
We struggle and suffer
We're fallin' for the trap
We're turnin' on each other
We're turnin' on each other
We're turnin' on each other

One thing
I'll never comprehend
One thing I'll never comprehend
Is how they turn us on our sisters, on our brothers
On children, on strangers, on neighbors and friends

The billionaire profits while the worker bleeds
One percent of the wealth hoards from millions in need
We're fightin' for the scraps
We struggle and suffer
We're fallin' for the trap
We're turnin' on each other

The billionaire profits while the worker bleeds
One percent of the wealth hoards from millions in need
We're fightin' for the scraps
We struggle and suffer
We're fallin' for the trap
We're turnin' on each other
We're turnin' on each other
We're turnin' on each other

One thing I'll never comprehend
We're turnin' on each other
One thing I'll never comprehend
We're turnin' on each other
