little girl's arms open wide, two ways to go but you can't decide

follows all rules, has no say

ends up in somebody elses play

close your eyes cuz you just dont need them anyway



lose as directed dont take no chance

dont end your life upon circumstance

mystery and misery go hand in hand

so you better follow the master plan

dont use your head, lose as directed



little boy sittin in his master's arms

safe and protected from any harm

wants to be a man, wants to branch out

but hes told not to ask questions or doubt

close your mind, its a book of instructions now



lose as directed, dont take no chance

dont end your life upon circumstance

mystery and misery go hand in hand

so you better follow the master plan

don't use your head, lose as directed

lose as directed, lets go



monkey see, monkey do

just another animal in the zoo

got four wall security

never even have to read a recipe

but its not exactly what you would call free



lose as directed, dont take no chance

dont end your life upon circumstance

mystery and misery go hand in hand

so you better follow the master plan

dont use your head, lose as directed

lose as directed, lose as directed,

lose as directed, lose as directed, lose as directed, you lose
