Lyrics

Tomorrow's Industry

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.

Young kids in Catholic schools

Elderly parents living under your roof

You pay the bills and you pay the price

You don't back down and you won't play nice

The disgraced values of the company man

Are why you fight and sacrifice

Don't bend or break for their one-way rules

Or run from battles you know you'll lose

Greed is blinding you

But we can see

He's got yesterday's values

Living in tomorrow's industry

They see your eyes, they see your face

But it's your soul they wanna take

Yeah, welcome to the future it don't seem fair

But this is your struggle, the cross you bear

They know your paying, they don't think twice

There's a dollar value on your life

You don't compromise and you don't break

Yeah, it's your principles at stake

Greed is blinding you

But we can see

He's got yesterday's values

Living in tomorrow's industry

[...]

Tomorrow's industry

The daily outlook it's so bleak

Saving every dollar in every week

Living month to month, you've got to get ahead

But all the while falling deeper in debt

Greed is blinding you

But we can see

He's got yesterday's values

Living in tomorrow's industry

The weight falls hard on the stand up guy

The one you can count on you can rely

This is your future it don't seem right

But this is your battle, this is your fight

Something in this country has got to change

If we're ever gonna see those days again

Your parents may have done it with just one job

But now we're working for less and twice as hard.

Greed is blinding you

But we can see

He's got yesterday's values

Living in tomorrow's industry
