I fight the system 'cause I'm offended

Know what it means to be a pawn

Manipulated beyond all reason

You can't decide what's right or wrong

Absorb the pressure. avoid the pain

See the factory. it's just a prison

Life sentence just so you can eat

You're just a number, they'll sacrifice you

Replace you with a new machine

You think they're loyal. you think they care

You think you'll never lose your job

You're just a sucker, if you don't wake up

One day you'll find out that you're gone

What are we doing. creating a system

Resulting in meaningless lives?

Instead of improving. we're always abusing

Too selfish to ever be wise

Busting our butts in a rush to get nowhere

Just look what we're leaving behind

A trail of destruction, self-centred obstruction

It's time to start using our minds

Fight the system. lose the pain

Lacking in courage. afraid of the future

Pretending that everything's fine

How will it feel when you're forty years old

And you're dumped from the factory line

Plan your escape 'cause it's certain to happen

The day when you're through is at hand

Sucker for punishment, here is your warning

Be ready before you get canned

Fight the system. lose the poin

Feel the pressure, this life's insane
