Chance to Steal - Race to the Bottom Lyrics
Official




You're rollin' back the prices
While you're rollin' out the lies
In this race down to the bottom
You would roll away our lives
The money just gets funneled back up
To the ruling class
While we're left in the cold now
With nothing more than rags
Let's go!
Cities of empty factories
Streets paved with broken glass
This system won't sustain itself
How much longer can it last
They say they want to build a better future for our young
But without an education, how will their day ever come?
Will work for food
Will work for Shelter
This whole world's going helter skelter
It doesn't matter what you dream
Cuz your whole life's just food for this machine
And now we're running, we're running in the wrong direction
We're racing to the bottom like we're blind
Yeah we're racing we're racing to our own destruction
And no one wants to be
Left behind
So tell me when you've had enough
And where you draw the line
When one percent owns half of everything
I'd say it's way past time
Don't try to feed us bullshit that they're the ones creating jobs
Someday you'll have to own up to the angry starving mobs
Will work for food
Will work for Shelter
This whole world's going helter skelter
It doesn't matter what you dream
Cuz your whole life's just food for this machine
And now we're running, we're running in the wrong direction
We're racing to the bottom like we're blind
Yeah we're racing we're racing to our own destruction
And no one wants to be
Left behind
Who needs a minimum wage?
It's the market that sends the jobs away
Don't worry about fair pay
Keeps slaving you'll get there someday!
Will work for food
Will work for Shelter
This whole world's going helter skelter
It doesn't matter what you dream
Cuz your whole life's just food for this machine
So now we're running, we're running in the wrong direction
We're racing to the bottom like we're blind
Yeah we're racing we're racing to our own destruction
And no one wants to be
Left behind
Woah
No one wants to be, left behind
Woah
No one wants to be, left behind!
