Master and Slave

No pennies from Heaven, no pennies in my hand
 Think you're drinkin' wine Dad, its the blood of the Lamb
 That's no way to treat you son now is it Abraham
 After he busted his ass for you
 You've never known hunger, never took a risk
 Though you know you should,
 you know you'd never raise a fist
 If the boss asked you to jump you know
 You'd find the nearest cliff
 That man talks down to you, and you talk down to me too
 Master and slace in equal parts
 Split down the middle drink' dubles at the bar
 Master and slave, God bless you both
 I got two for the price of one
 (Such a deal for your only Son)
 When will the tension be all over
 For fallen sons and fathers too
 I'm down to my last dime
 No faith in mankind
 C'mon lets swing into the groove
 Like Jack Homer backed into a corner
 but I never saw a slice of no pie
 too busy standing in line, just waiting for bread
 but the father, he walks the water
 he ain't never tossed a nickel to his son
 ain't I your prodigal boy?
 ain't I your pride and joy?
 Friends and Romans, I'm your brother
 I'm scratchin' to hang on
 The pursuit of happiness is just a carpetbagger's con
 When a can of pork and beans could change my attitude
 You won't give it up but I coulda been you
 While masters and slaves scratch for pieces of the dream
 for purple mountain majesties, whatever the hell that means
 They give up on each other
 And that's the way they get ahead
 But I can still see the stars through these red, white, and blue prison bars
 Master and slace in equal parts
 Split down the middle drink' dubles at the bar
 Master and slave, God bless you both
 I got two for the price of one
 (Such a deal for your only Son)
