I don't feel like being a member
Of your social experiment
You green-eyed capitalist
Wastin' away doom-scrollin' online
After you work your nine to five
And take whatever gets you high
In this world of manufactured perfect noise
From the distractors with perfect poise
Pushin' an endless line of new perfect toys
I can't breathe
Overwhelmed by the sea of possibilities
Possibly unknowingly
Sign away my life to companies
Welcome to my identity
Trackin' me intensively
And breakin' my digital knees
Just to fuckin' squeeze
A few fuckin' pennies
From my bank savings
I been saving
Since I was fuckin' thirteen
But that don't mean a fuckin' thing
When you got the fuckin' sleaze
It ain't easy
Knowing the cheese ain't just the bait
But the whole trap too
Turns from a nibble
To a desperate chew
And the rats at the top
They know this all too well
Lockin' up the cheddar
Trynna make us a deal
Say "An extra nibble for 8 hours
on the hamster wheel"
Just to be clear
I'm not talkin' about rats
I'm talkin' about the bastards
Forcin' us to butcher their veal
Isolated from the rest of humanity
The one percent's greatest concern
Is their vanity
A flat out calamity
Call it insanity
I think we should finally
Topple the canopy
And bring the forest floor to justice
And climb the trees
Bring the forest floor to justice
And fight these rich chimpanzees
Again I'm talkin' allegorically
No need to wad up
Your satin silk panties
The motherfuckers at the top
Take it easy
Forcing us to play the game
In survival mode
Around the board
Payin' taxes, pinchin' pennies
Til you make it back to GO
And start again
Rottin' our eyes and our minds
With television crud
Sellin' us pills and thrills
That turn our brains to sludge
Fillin' our shelves with
Chemicals and dyes
How do we survive with
poison in our food supply
I'm tired of nobody stoppin'
Elite deviance
What's that you ask
Oh you don't know what it is
It's when the Wall Street
White collar one percent
Bend the law in their
Defense of innocence
And it all works out
Nine times out of ten
Simply because the judge
Is one of them
And simply because they're
Part of the ruling class
Simply because they
Accumulated so many assets
Money gets you freedom
The more you got
The more you get
You understand
The more you make
The more you take
You understand
The more you stack
The more you slash
You understand
Then why the f*ck
Are you still clappin' your hands
Of course you're cheerin' them on
Mr. Bossman
You got your freedom
wrapped up in it too
Mr. Bossman
Brainwashed from all the years
Of wearin' shiny shoes
Don't you worry about the cost man
You fragile boss man
Corporations exploitin' the cultures
The suits are perched
Like economic vultures
Waiting to swoop down
To collect their rewards
For a job well done
Supervising the labor force
While the ones who work the hardest
Get a little tiny drop
In their little tiny buckets
I love seein' the corporate
Executives suck it
When their workers finally have
Enough and they all say "F*ck it"
And take their dirty uniforms
And finally chuck it
At Mr. Bossman himself
But he's quick to duck it
Pass the blame
On to somebody else
Goes home for the day
Big house by himself
Some might feel sorry
But I just think f*ck him
The motherfuckers at the top
Take it easy
Forcing us to play the game
In survival mode
Around the board
Payin' taxes, pinchin' pennies
Til you make it back to GO
And start again
