lyrics

High on the Hog
Do you think this planet will last forever/ Polluting at the rate that we do?/ Do you think your God will let you into heaven/ And then come and clean up after you?/ If you do, well / You’ve been living high on the hog for too long baby/ You’ve been living high on the hog for so long its gone to your head/ Do you think that oil is going to last forever/ Driving at the rate that you do?/ Baby, baby, baby, you could run over each other/ You won’t have to worry about who’ll come after you/ Because, you’ve been living high on the hog for too long baby/ You’ve been living high on the hog for so long its gone to your head/ You’ve been living high on the hog for too long baby/ You’ve been living high on the hog - its gone to your head!/ Do you ever stop and think about the slaves/ That make the shit that you throw away?/ What if they were gonna come round to dinner/ Do you know what you’re gonna say?/ You’ve been living high on the hog for too long baby/ You’ve been living high on the hog for so long its gone to your head
