Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Allow Them lyrics

Allow them

They just crawled out of the woodwork

The cockroach in the expensive suit and tie

Failure has far too many fathers

Succeed and you're an orphan 'til you die

Now then no one is saying they deserve it

What's more they've gotten more than they deserve

Allow them

They've got a pitch and a proposal

The runaround might be a better term for it

They think that they've got us at their disposal

Sit still this wont hurt a bit

Now no one's saying they deserve it

What's more they've gotten more than they deserve

The day will come when there is nothing left to be afraid of

Allow them

They will destroy themselves if we allow them to

It's such a cold cold whorey place

There's more than rats running in the race

And more than weasels calling in the plays

These are cold cold whorey days

Deception is an ax they wield

There's wands to wave with every call they field

This is just not us at all

And if it is, we've dropped the ball

And we know who's not a carrier

They hide behind a barrier

That they'll destroy themselves somehow

It's up to us if we allow

They will destroy themselves if we allow them to

Allow them

They're setting it in motion

Unaware, unaware where they are heading to right now

Allow them

We'll wait for the commotion

That's bound to come

Bound to come

Bound to come if we allow

Now then, no one's saying they deserve it

What's more they've gotten more than they deserve

The day will come when there is nothing left to be afraid of

Allow them

They will destroy themselves if we allow them to
