Old lion's dying, got left behind
Cut your teeth, lose your meat
And man it's just a matter of time
Keys to the cuffs, you might be king
That's it, that's all, that's everything

Skeletons come here to dance
Where barrooms beat their brothers
Into a bloody trance
What's the deal? what did I do?
Who cops all the cops is all I asked of you

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something's up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

Twenty miles before the crash
That's the style for a while
And man, I think it's gonna last
"Hit the brakes" is all you can say
Conductor says we'll save them
For another rainy day

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something's up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

Old lion's dying, got left behind
Cut your teeth, lose your meat
And man it's just a matter of time
Keys to the cuffs, you might be king
That's it, that's all, that's everything

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something's up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

Lining up, waiting on the trickle down
Something's up, taking time to get around
Belly up, all the drinks are on the crown
It's just a matter of a trickle down

It's just a matter of a trickle down
Oh, it's just a matter of a trickle down
