Dead Kennedys - Lie Detector lyrics

We have reviewed your yellow form Congratulations! we find you qualified You have just the right capacity For putting up with our nonsense There's just one thing you've got to prove We know how you must be dishonest and lazy If you're so desperate You actually want to work at this place [Chorus:] You must be guilty (lie detector) Guilty (lie detector) Guilty (lie detector) Guilty 'til you're proven innocent These days Blood pressure clamps around your arms Now don't get nervous when we yell in your face We know you steal- Just who do you screw? With what?! With who?!? Aren't you a Christian?!?!? The polygraph-don't make it move One little twitch, the anvil drops on you Don't matter if you told the truth We want your facial egg for our file [Chorus] Guilty-'til proven innocent Guilty-It says so on your face Guilty-When you try to find a place to live or a job that pays Guilty-Whe you file a complaint against the cop that kicked your face last night Guilty-It says so on page 3 Guilty-Who'd think a guy like me would plant d** in your car Break in your house while you're asleep Open your mouth, bet your a** you're watched And it's your word against ours... Yeah, just because we're hiring you That don't mean we trust you at all You'll have to take a test like this Once or twice EVERY week We know machines, they make mistakes Yeah, it's your word against our dead black box The machine is always right 'Cause we know how it makes you feel so small Because you're guilty (lie detector) 'Til you're proven innocent these days No one's innocent these days 'Cause when you're innocent it just don't pay
