Highest Bidder Lyrics

[Intro]
Dang-dang, dow-dow-dow
Dang-dang, dow-dow-dow
Dang-dang, dow-dow-dow

[Verse 1]
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself
I say, "What's going on with this here?"
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself every day
"What's going on with this here?"
Oh, that bank is a serial killer (Yeah)
Trying to build more prisons for your children (Yeah)
That doctor's a drug dealer (Yeah)
Gotta make a profit, gotta make a killing (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highеst bidder
Everything goes to thе highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder

[Verse 2]
I fake it the same way that you do every day, the same way that you do
I say, "What's going on with this here?"
I fake it the same way that you do every day, the same way that you do
I say, "What's going on with this here?"
Technology feeds the spiritually dead
Fantasies that live inside your head (Wait a minute!)
Wait, now you can't go
Wait, now you can't go
Wait, now you can't go home no more (Uh)

[Chorus]
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder
Everything goes to the highest bidder

[Bridge]
Doon-doon, ah, doon-doon, yeah
Doon-doon, ah, doon-doon, yeah
Doon-doon, ah, doon-doon, yeah
Doon-doon, ah, doon-doon, yeah

We're going to have to turn it up
We're going to have to turn it up
We're going got to have to turn it up
We're going got to have to turn it up

I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself
I say, "What's going on with this here?" (We're going to have to turn it up)
I say the same thing to myself every day, the same thing to myself
I say, "What's going on with this here?" (What's going on with this here?)

[Interlude]
Doctor
Drug dealer
Fake healer
Fate sealer, oh, ooh-yeah

[Chorus]
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (Aah)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest)
Everything goes to the highest bidder (To the highest bidder)
