The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Little girl's arms open wide, two ways to go but you can'tdecide
follows all rules, has no say
ends up in somebody elses play
close your eyes cuz you just dont need them anyway
lose as directed dont take no chance
dont end your life upon circumstance
mystery and misery go hand in hand
so you better follow the master plan
dont use your head, lose as directed
little boy sittin in his master's arms
safe and protected from any harm
wants to be a man, wants to branch out
but hes told not to ask questions or doubt
close your mind, its a book of instructions now
lose as directed, dont take no chance
dont end your life upon circumstance
mystery and misery go hand in hand
so you better follow the master plan
don't use your head, lose as directed
lose as directed, lets go
monkey see, monkey do
just another animal in the zoo
got four wall security
never even have to read a recipe
but its not exactly what you would call free
lose as directed, dont take no chance
dont end your life upon circumstance
mystery and misery go hand in hand
so you better follow the master plan
dont use your head, lose as directed
lose as directed, lose as directed,
lose as directed, lose as directed, lose as directed, you lose!
