Who We Are
Walking through the world
We play mankind like dominoes
Looking for wages, looking for pearls
Making friends and making foes
Fences drawn, walls to protect
Armies armed, booby-trap
We can never stop to walk on a map
We always march in step
Because
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
They make us who we are
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
We're not ready at hand to make a stand
They make us who we are
The TV speaks, the radio talks
We do what we're told
We are pray for the hungry hawks
Since god put us on hold
If no one's there to comfort you
We look for another source
Whatever is fed might be untrue
But we follow the leading force
And
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They drive us
They guide us
They make us who we are
They break us
They scrape us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
We're not ready at hand to make a stand
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts
You are not machines you are not kettle
You are men
Because
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They drive us
They guide us
They make us who we are
They break us
They scrape us
They make us what we are
They starve us
They carve us
They make us who we are
They mould us
They scold us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
We're not ready at hand to make a stand
We play mankind like dominoes
Looking for wages, looking for pearls
Making friends and making foes
Fences drawn, walls to protect
Armies armed, booby-trap
We can never stop to walk on a map
We always march in step
Because
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
They make us who we are
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
We're not ready at hand to make a stand
They make us who we are
The TV speaks, the radio talks
We do what we're told
We are pray for the hungry hawks
Since god put us on hold
If no one's there to comfort you
We look for another source
Whatever is fed might be untrue
But we follow the leading force
And
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They drive us
They guide us
They make us who we are
They break us
They scrape us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
We're not ready at hand to make a stand
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts
You are not machines you are not kettle
You are men
Because
They take us
They shape us
They make us what we are
They drive us
They guide us
They make us who we are
They break us
They scrape us
They make us what we are
They starve us
They carve us
They make us who we are
They mould us
They scold us
They make us what we are
They sand us
They tan us
We're not ready at hand to make a stand
