The news looks bad for the helpless of the world, I know
'Cause there ain't a lot of help going down that ain't bought or sold
People doing big business in deadbolts and chains
Reading soldier of fortune to show them the way

To keep the other cavemen from stealing their fire
They're telling you you got to be a survivor

Or be dying by the golden rule
Heads up, it could happen to you
Dying by the golden rule
Now it's do unto others
Before they do unto you

We've come up short of the things that really count in life
Everybody's on the take, but givings where they draw the line
Delusions of grandeur keep you running the race
With your 44 magnum loaded just in case

Or be dying by the golden rule
Heads up, it could happen to you
Dying by the golden rule
Now it's do unto others
Before they do unto you

Caught between the gods trying to steal your thunder
And the devil dragging you under, oh
You might also like
Touch my fire
Alien
Wings of fire
Alien
Only one woman
Alien
Dying by the golden rule
Heads up, it could happen to you
Dying by the golden rule
Now it's do unto others
Before they do unto you

Dying by the golden rule
(Heads up) or be dyin'
(Dying by the golden rule)
Now it's do unto others
(Before they do unto you)

Dying (by the golden rule) or be dyin'
(Heads up)
(Dying by the golden rule)
Now it's do unto others
(Before they do unto you)

(Dying by the golden rule)
(Heads up)
