Dead Kennedys D.M.S.O. / Lie Detector song lyrics
D.M.S.O.
Crypto wonder drug in vogue
Some people say it cures arthritis
Maybe that's why it keeps getting banned
It's absorbed directly through the skin
Mix it with lemon juice
Touch your fingertips, you'll taste the lemon
The police started a riot
Down at the courthouse again
Running amok, spilling blood, bashing heads
I do my part behind the lines
Swabbing door handles of cop cars
With D.M.S.O. mixed with L.S.D.
D.M.S.O.
D.M.S.O.
D.M.S.O.
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
You must be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
'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
You must be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
'Til you're proven innocent these days
Proven innocent these days
Guilty - 'Til proven innocent
Guilty - It says so on your face
Guilty - When you try to find
Guilty - A place to live or a job that pays
Guilty - When you file a complaint
Guilty - Against the cop that kicked your face last night
Guilty - It says so on page three
Guilty - Who'd think a guy like me
Would plant drugs in your car?
Break in your house while you're asleep
Open your mouth, bet your ass 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
And it's your word against our dead black box
The machine is always right
'Cause we know how it makes you feel so small
You must be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
'Til you're proven innocent
You must be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
Be guilty - Lie detector
'Til you're proven innocent these days
Proven innocent these days
'Cause when you're innocent...
When you're innocent...
When you're innocent it just don't pay
