Natural law has been suspended
Decency's definition votelessly amended
Men of honor have shown themselves dogs
And, baby, you don't fit in anymore
Incisors people hid behind peaceful ideologies
Bare themselves now even at co*ktail parties
If they sense weakness, they'll rip you to shreds
Riffle your pockets and leave you for dead
And it's bad from the heartland to the shore
It's bad, the wolves aren't howling anymore
It's bad, you've seen it before
They're running in packs
Looking to score
Scratching a hole through your front door
A few big crooks and a shortened supply
And in was out, and earth, sky
They're filling churches now to pray for success
It's bedlam, baby, in the land of the blessed
And it's bad from the heartland to the shore
It's bad, the wolves aren't howling anymore
It's bad, we've seen it all before
They're running in packs
Looking to score
Scratching a hole
Shrinking, constricting, there's less to get
Down in the sewer, everyone's wet
Hot in the courtrooms, the lawsuits fly
Everybody's fighting for a piece of the pie
It's obvious to me that you don't fit in
I'll give you some advice, and it might be a sin
Turn your back on what you thought you believed
Start talking hard and pack heat
And it's bad from the heartland to the shore
It's bad, the wolves aren't howling anymore
It's bad, you've seen it all before
They're running in packs
Looking to score
Scratching a hole through your front door
