Lyrics
Forth With The Herd
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.
Welcome to class now you are
Locked up all your life in a concrete structure
Blocked off from the world
Clogging up your thoughts with the empty
notions
Null on the outside
Live, learn
A black stare responds
The master of ceremonies drones right on for hours
The blinding lights go dull
The brilliant babies go back home uninspired
Running up your brain through the rodent mazes
Cold and predefined
Making all the necessary contributions
Keep within the lines
Hold still
Welcome to academic success
Jerk off to your name on the Dean's List
Slowly marching forth with the herd
The umbilical cord of the world
Choking off the breath of your mind
Hollowed out and starving for life
Recycle the elite pinned to your chest
Leaning to the right while stroking the left
Slowly marching forth with the herd
The umbilical cord of the world
Embryonic brains without spines
A flock of talking heads in disguise
Disappear in a sea of cloned thought patterns
Slowly marching forth with the herd
The umbilical cord of the world
Self-aborted right in your prime
Speak up your idea will inspire and shine
Alas it's been thought a thousand times
Castrate yourself with the fear of being less than wealthy
Rapid-fire attempts at quick inspiration leave you broke
and numb
The paralyzing pain of their expectation causes you
to run
Drop out
