The work that you do is not enough, No it’s not enough Can’t you seem like you try, And do it with a smile Somebody tell me why
I’m just a cog in a wheel, Your future has been sealed Burning time and brewing lies, Whilst your dreams just die Somebody tell me why
And so I fade away...
This distillation of time, time that’s passing by
Could be kinder to me, If you still believe
I could change my mind
So screw this job you freak, What you say to me?
You can stick it up your hole, You’re going straight to the dole At last I can sleep
And so you fade away
I’ll stick a needle in my arm, Can’t do much harm
Sign this deal with a kiss, You surely won’t be missed
I work and then I die
I’ve played all the games you want to play, and it’s worked out this way
I could have done with some luck, but I didn’t get out much
Somebody tell me why
