This is your life
Don't look surprised
It's all laid out and you've no right to criticise
Man on a roll
Credit control
Thank God he quit those childish dreams of rock 'n' roll
...All this impossible toil...
She's talented and vulnerable
Not just a polar bear who's playing in the snow
And as a rule I'm no one's fool
But the smell of coffee makes me think that isn't true
Work hard and reap the reward
Go choose the pen or the sword
Go blame your sins on your Lord
Sit back and wait for reward
Thou shall succeed
Thou shall stand tall
Thou shall send soldier drones to fight unholy wars
Thou shall be taxed on seeds you've sown
Thou shall be sodomised by suits who know it all
Another day, another dollar
Go thread that leash under your collar
Look what we eat just to feed
'Cause we're weak but we're eager to please
Work hard and reap the reward
Go choose the pen or the sword
Go wave goodbye to the shore
Go wave goodbye to your oars.
