Attila the Hun Got Nuthin' On Us

Attila The Hun Got Nuthin' On Us
By Roy Merritt

Barbarians these days 
Fly around in jet planes
Ride around in big town cars 
While scoutin' out terrain
Lookin' to go very far
They wear Armani suits and ties
Their wives dress like queens
And Attila the Hun 
Got nuthin’ on them
They’s just as equally mean

Barbarians these days
They live on grand estates
They drink the finest of wines
They dine on the thickest steaks
And lookin' to have a good time
They always have servants  
And always make the scene
And Attila the Hun 
Got nuthin’ on them
They’s just as equally mean

Barbarians these days
Go to church and pray
But would rob you blind 
If they ever got their way
Would rob you of every thin dime
They got most everything 
More money than god has seen
And Attila the Hun 
Got nuthin’ on them
They’s just as equally mean

Barbarians these days
They got their heads in sand
Think they can just keep stealin’
And we’ll never take a stand
Can keep us forever reelin'
But boy they're sure wrong 
Our patience is wearin’ lean
And Attila the Hun 
Got nuthin’ on them
They’s just as equally mean

Barbarians these days
They think we have no power
That we won’t ever rise up
On some future hour
That we'll forever take their stuff
But boy they're sure wrong 
We just might turn into fiends
And Attila the Hun 
Got nuthin’ on them
They’s just as equally mean

Barbarians these day
They think they could flee
When that time shows up
Payback for you and me
Retribution we've had enough
Frogs'll look like pikers as our terror starts to reign
And Attila the Hun 
Got nuthin’ on us
We can be as equally mean
