Mister Wilson
Hey Mister Wilson all numbers have their sum
And hey Mister Wilson they play the numbers in the slum
A Salvation Army banding piping we shall overcome
Hey Mister Wilson please tell me what have you done
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Life is truth and your truth is lies
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise
A world away you play with digits on the screen
When you don’t see the tears the evil don’t seem so mean
Welfare mothers kicking back with the brothers in the hood
In a black and white world color is misunderstood
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Life is truth and your truth is lies
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise
Ghetto defenders with righteous pretenders romance and dance
Every child in the wild is a victim of circumstance
And Mister Wilson we know you’re a self-made man
But your rich father sure did lend a hand
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Life is truth and your truth is lies
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise
The roaches swarm immune to toxic chemical swarms
Rats larger than cats abuse and refuse to conform
Still the money flows and everybody knows just fine
That in this world of greed the green is bottom line
Truth be told Mister Wilson you’re lost as could be
You heart in the frost counting the cost of idolatry
Hell is a fire burning in a rage out of control
You’ve made the upper grade while losing your soul
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Life is truth and your truth is lies
Mister Wilson you’re a man on the rise
Mister Wilson you’re the devil in disguise
