Stop the bus 
I want to be lonely 
When seconds pass slowly 
And years go flying by 
You gotta stop the bus 
We get off here 
Enough's enough
And I'm leaving this factory 
All she wants is food on the table 
And I won't be able to bring it home 
And all I want, come on, 
Is all I need, yeh is free 
Cause I'm a factory 
Did Mother Nature tell you 
Boy you come and go as you please 
That's what she said to me 
But big brother got the keys 
And I got Jackson Cannery 
Millionaires and mill rats live side by side here
Messed up my brother's mind 
He's far from earth 
Tell me what's he worth
The same as you 
The same as me 
In this factory 
Did Mother Nature tell you 
Boy you come and go as you please? 
That's what she said to me 
But big brother got the keys 
And I got Jackson Cannery 
It's four in the morning 
Mother don't know 
That I'm going far away 
She's whispering to the moon 
I hope he don't join you soon 
Baby boss 
Climbs up from his soapbox 
Great Caesar's ghost 
Knows what's best for me 
He says stop the bus 
Did Mother Nature tell you 
Boy you come and go as you please 
That's what she said to me 
Big brother got the keys 
And I got Jackson Cannery 
Big brother got the keys 
And I got Jackson Cannery 
Big brother got the keys 
And I got Jackson Cannery
