Ruthless People Lyrics By Mick Jagger

    hey stand up ruthless people
    hey stand up ruthless people real and evil

    they love the smell of the killing the flesh
    gorging ’til they’ve had their fill of success
    dealing their mother to get into paradise
    pay jesus special protection and ain’t it wise

    hey stand up ruthless people
    so deceitful i wanna tell you’
    hey come on stand up’get on your feet
    ruthless people real and evil what i say’

    greedy forever and ever success
    greedy and ever so clever a mess
    given the right on to creep into paradise
    they’ll even blackmail st peter then pay the price

    hey stand up’get on your feet
    ruthless people greed and evil oh yes

    you can have it if you want it
    it might take the rest of your life
    if you want it you can have it
    to a balancing act on a knife
    you can have it if you want it
    if you think it’s cheap at the price
    if you want it you can have it
    but sweat your sweet soul out of lives

    ruthless people
    ruthless people
    ruthless people
    ruthless people
    you better watch your back now

    hey
    ruthless people
    ruthless ruthless ruthless ruthless people
    hey stand up
