Wolves in the Pews

// SeattleSysop 2025 [Intro] (Lord have mercy...) [Verse 1] Used to know who held the keys Now the locks don't mean a thing Every hand that shakes yours clean Got dirt you'll never see The ones who wrote the rules Are the first to break 'em down [Pre-Chorus] And we just keep our heads low Pretend we don't know (Lord have mercy) [Chorus] There's wolves in the pews (wolves in the pews) And snakes in the suits (snakes in the suits) The good ones got tired Or maybe they never were true Who do you trust when the liars make the rules (Lord have mercy) (oh-oh-oh) (Judges on the payroll) (Lawyers know the game) (Lord have mercy) [Verse 2] They smile for the cameras Then count what they stole Selling out their neighbors For a little bit of gold Your brother turns you in For a seat at the table [Pre-Chorus] And nobody says a word Like we ain't seen... like we ain't heard.. (Lord have mercy) [Chorus] There's wolves in the pews (wolves in the pews) And snakes in the suits (snakes in the suits) The good ones got tired Or maybe they never were true Who do you trust when the liars make the rules (Lord have mercy) (oh-oh-oh) (Judges on the payroll) (Newsman reads the script) (Lord have mercy) [Bridge] Mama said hold on to what's right But right got bought and sold tonight (sold tonight) I'm looking for a honest face In a world that lost its grace (Lord have mercy) [Chorus] There's wolves in the pews (wolves in the pews) And snakes in the suits (snakes in the suits) The good ones got tired Or maybe they never were true Who do you trust when the liars make the rules (Lord have mercy) (oh-oh-oh) (Judges on the payroll) (Bankers walk away free) (Lord have mercy) [Outro] Who do you trust (who do you trust) When they're all wolves (all wolves) (Lord have mercy) (oh... oh...) (Lord have mercy)
