lyrics

you're a victim
with sad convictions of the truth
and in this system, baby
well that can't be any use
it's just a whitewash brother
all the things that you believe
so did you think that
the devil would bring relief?

No no no no

you know i've been the hustler
ever since
slippin' under
the electrified fence
retribution - is what i bring
for the pain and strife and suffering!

you see the problem
but you don't see the other side
so fight the good fight
and see it all through hustler eyes (yeah, yeah)
it's just hypnosis baby
like the matrix you've been fooled
so listen to me
be the hustler
and don't be used

oh whoa oh

i've been the hustler
ever since
slippin' under
the electrified fence
retribution - is what i bring
for the pain and strife and suffering!

i've been the hustler
ever since
slippin' under
the electrified fence
retribution - is what i bring
for the pain and strife and suffering!
