Why do people live this way? They shake all night and slave all day They have nothing They have nothing And when exactly were we sold That a good boy does just what he's told
Why did we choose lead over gold? Why did we choose lead over gold?
They said take Anything you want But you never got a lot You never got a single thing worth anything
Wake up It's later than you know And you have to go 'cause Now it's time to punch the clock Now it's time to punch the clock
Everyday and all brand new It's an endless re-run starring me and you We're just running in the wrong direction Monkeys fascinated by our own reflections
A distant prize, the open doors Reveal themselves as painted walls A way to keep the hunger up So we all run for the rabbit when the gate goes up Run from the rabbit when the gate goes up (x7)
Run from the rabbit when the gate goes up
Take Everything you want But you never got a lot You never got a single thing worth anything
Wake up It's later than you know And you have to go 'cause Now it's time to punch the clock Now it's time to punch the clock
Lead over gold (x12)
Suck out all the lives and the money runs dry Yeah there's worms in the apple and there's trails in the sky A lot more money and a lot less soul Bang the peg into the hole The peg into the hole (x2)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
