Lyrics

[Music, lyrics & arrangement by eilen]

An organ doner who, in need of money
Promises a doctor to let him have his organs
He can't pay back the money and is eviscerated while still alive

Today was the day, money I didn't have
They came to me in their white coats
And took my kidneys and my heart
Now my body's bloody cold
My signature was my grave!

Sign your name and you'll be free
Take the money and feel good
Pay your debts, it's all okay
20.000 you have got
I give you one year to pay back
And take your organs if you don't
Now you know about the consequence
So we'll meet in one year

I knew I couldn't get a job these days
So where could I find my way out
20.000 dollars were too much
The doc, he knew I had no chance
Poverty was my gallows pole
The rich were dancing on my grave
And isn't it disgusting, man
I wasn't dead, I was alive

It's not a tale, man, this is true
I paid my debts with my life
It's not a vision of tomorrow
Those things happen today
If you've got money, you'll get new teeth
You'll get new skin and a new heart
But as a poor man
You will see your own flashback start
