[Verse 1]
Gold in the parliament gutters
Ink on invisible chains
Smiles in the blackout broadcast
Hands all covered in stains
Secret meetings under stained glass
Blood on the marble floor
They drink to “order” and “progress”
Locking every exit door
[Chorus]
Teeth in the throne
Biting down on bone
They feed on our fear
Then call it “law and order”
Teeth in the throne
Chewing through the soul
We’re done being owned
We’re coming for the slaughter (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Votes weighed out in briefcases
Truth sold cheap in the night
They turn our hunger to hatred
Then sell us back their “right”
Red tape wrapped like a tourniquet
Tight on a strangled plea
They swear they’re serving the people
While they’re burying the key
[Chorus]
Teeth in the throne
Biting down on bone
They feed on our fear
Then call it “law and order”
Teeth in the throne
Chewing through the soul
We’re done being owned
We’re coming for the slaughter (tear it down!)
[Bridge]
Name every liar by title
Rip every mask from their skin
If justice won’t open the courthouse
We’ll kick the rot from within
No more “be patient” sermons
From men who gorge on our pain
If they won’t answer the questions
We’ll carve the truth in their veins
[Chorus]
Teeth in the throne
Biting down on bone
They feed on our fear
Then call it “law and order”
Teeth in the throne
Chewing through the soul
We’re done being owned
We’re here for the slaughter (yeah!)
Teeth in the throne
Cracking under roar
Your time is gone
You’re ruler nevermore
