Lyrics

Make My Living Off Of Fear - drawing by Harvey Dog 2019 for the 1998 Hated Uncles song "Make My Living Off Of Fear"

Hear the silent screams?
I caused them all,
if you’re deep in trouble
and need some protection,
give me a call,
I like the silent screams,
the power of a piece,
unknown and shady
I make my living off of fear.

I’ve got concrete shoes
in the back of my car,
give me a call
I eliminate irritations,
I like the silent screams,
the blood in the mouth,
the futility of prayer,
I make my living off of fear.

I’m a busy man
I’ve got jobs to do,
so don’t waste my time
unless you’re serious,
I like the silent screams,
the power of a piece,
the futility of prayer,
I make my living off of fear.
