I've been busting my hands
Fixing cars in Spokane
I never planned to be captive
But it feels like I'm stuck
Just trying to adapt it
Ever since we were kids
We were taught how to live
Buy as much as you can
Stuff it all in a house
And pay back the man
And you'll just have to
Work work work your whole damn life
All you've gotta do is try try try
When you reach the end and you ain't got no friends
You can use all of the money trying not to die
In the land of the free
We stirred up a storm of hatred and greed
In the home of the brave
Everyone's quiet just glad to be slaves
Of a system taking truths and it twists them
Pop these pills or you'll be sorry you missed them
And as long as the public is sleeping
We'll lie on our backs while the enemies are creeping
Work work work your whole damn life
All you've gotta do is try try try
When you reach the end and you ain't got no friends
You can use all of the money trying not to die
