Elevator Going Up

We've got pretend kings, all bow down and kiss the ring
Stand up and sing my boys, let the anthem ring
Ring out like a broken bell, an awful book but still it sells
A blackened candle in the night, my friends, ain't enough to make it right
If you've had enough, time to toughen up
Let's rise. Elevator goin' up
Let's get off of these meds, take our hands from above our heads
Jerks live off of the fat of land, drunk on power, they belch commands
Not too proud to wash the blood from their hands, they issue edicts in Comic Sans
Kick down the door and change the locks, there's more meaning to life than those stocks
Let's get it together, man, pull up your socks, sister, let's take a swig and give 'em a shock
If you've had enough, it's time to toughen up
Let's rise, elevator goin' up
Let's get off of these meds, take our hands from above our heads
Elevator goin' up
There's a fire and here's the plan, yeah, we're adrift, but there's the land
We're tied together by a tether, we're in the muck and the weather, whatever
Kick down the door and change the locks, there's more meaning to life than those stocks
Let's get it together, man, pull up those Nike socks, let's take a swig and give 'em a shock
If you've had enough, it's time to toughen up
Let's rise, elevator goin' up
Let's get off of these meds, take your hand from off your head
Elevator goin' up
