V4.5-ALL

[Intro] I put my dollar in I made my choice I heard the little motor In its evil little voice I saw my chips start falling I thought my day was blessed But halfway down that metal coil They came to rest [Record scratch] [Spoken:] …No. No, this is a crime. [Verse 1] Behind that glass You mock me slow Barbecue chips I’ll never know I press the code I press it twice This whole machine Is cold as ice I shake it once I shake it more Now everybody’s staring from the store But I’m not leaving Not like this You don’t just steal A man’s chips [Chorus] MACHINE THIEF! Give them back Give them back Give them back! You took my dollar Took my snack Now I’m planning my attack MACHINE THIEF! Metal liar Metal liar Metal liar! You ate my money Now this thing Is my sworn enemy for life! [Verse 2] A7 was the code I chose I watched my only dollar go That little coil It did me wrong It held my chips It held too long Some guy said “Just let it go” Sir you don’t understand the code This is honor This is theft This is justice Unaddressed [Chorus] MACHINE THIEF! Drop the bag Drop the bag Drop the bag! I see it hanging By the corner Like a tiny chip toe tag MACHINE THIEF! You will pay You will pay You will pay! One of us Is leaving here In victory today [Music cuts out] [Bridge – Spoken Dramatic] You think this is funny? You think this is a game? I inserted legal tender. I made a lawful selection. This was a binding agreement. And you— You machine— You broke the contract. You have 10 seconds… To release the chips. [Band SLAMS Back In] [Final Chorus] MACHINE THIEF! Last chance now Last chance now Last chance now! Either drop them Or I rock this metal box ‘Til it all falls down! MACHINE THIEF! I won’t leave I won’t leave I won’t leave! This is now A matter of My dignity! [Outro] [Music fades to quiet] [Spoken:] All I wanted… Was barbecue chips… [big CLUNK sound — snack drops] [Excited gang vocals:] OH! OH! OH! [Final line] [Spoken:] Justice… is salty.
