hit you with the guilt

Lyrics

they pin you full of medals, thinking everything is settled, like you're some jerk, they make you out a hero, then they turn you into zero, 'cause there's no work, they mail congratulations every federal occasion, but it still hurts, they send you out to kill, then they hit you with the bill, and every time you try to climb the hill, they hit you with the guilt, you've not committed any crime, they hit you with the guilt, anything if you toe the line, they tell you get a job, but there's not a lot to rob, and it's too late - can't wait, they want you to be patient, get a higher education, find a new trade - self-made, they tell you to forget, but the people that you've met, put out quite a chill, they treat you like a loser. you're just another user, and every time you've had your fill, they hit you with the guilt, you've not committed any crime, they hit you with the guilt, anything if you toe the line, it's a crummy situation when the heroes of a nation, are its outlaws, there's got to be a reason to keep on believing, when you're rubbed raw, what happened to the payoff? just another layoff, just another short-order drill, they treat you like a man, then they mark you with a brand, and every time you want to kill, they hit you with the guilt, you've not committed any crime, they hit you with the guilt, anything if you toe the line, they hit you with the guilt, you've not committed any crime, they hit you with the guilt, anything if you toe the line
