lyrics

Chords:
Em (two measures)
Am (one measure)
B7 (one measure)
Repeat through whole song

All these people!
All these- people!

We're on a trip to the meat market, now tell me how we're gonna do it, how we're getting through it?
They got some style and some mild wit, but now they got to prove it- how they gonna do it?
They got their guys on every corner right?
With a cat that's cool, and an atrocious fool
And now we're gonna hear em sing tonight!
Why don't we try it, and buy it, and do it till the morning!

<chorus>
All these people!
You look around and then you see so much how they're all so equal
All these people!
You look around and then you see so much how they're not so equal
All these people! We're living on the second floor above a liquor store
All these people! And if we read it good, they'll treat us like they should

We're gonna try to quit the meat market, you know these jokers look familiar, you think they're gonna kill you
You've seen the coverage, you're sick of it
You know it's not that shocking, all it is is talking!
Why don't you try to close your eyes and sleep?
In the streets today, it's a sweaty parade
But you know you can't escape the heat
Why you try it, then buy it, and do it till the morning!

<chorus>
All these people!
You look around and then you see so much how they're all so equal
All these people!
You look around and then you see so much how they're not so equal
All these people! You live in paradise, if you can make it right.
All these people!

We're going back to hit the meat market, they ain't no second class Jimmys, not gonna split the winnings
You shift around and it's a decent fit
So let's go and get the boys in, c'mon and pick your poison!
And all the money's flowing in tonight!
We got the LA hipsters and Nebraska twisters
When all the dancing citizens unite
Why don't you try it, and buy it, and always get em next time!

<chorus>
All these people!
You look around and then you see so much how they're all so equal
All these people!
You look around and then you see so much how they're not so equal
All these people! Go ahead and pull it good, you might be understood
All these people!
