Lead Over Gold
Why do people live this way
They shake all night and slave all day
And get nothing
They have nothing
And when exactly where we sold
That a good boy does just what he's told
Why did you choose lead over gold
When did we chose lead over gold
And said take
Anything you want
But you never got a lot
You never got a single with anything
WAKE UP
It's later than you know
And you have to go
Cause now it's time to punch the clock
Now it's time to punch the clock
Everyday and all brand new
It's an endless rerun starring me and you
We're just running in the wrong direction
Monkeys fascinated by their own reflections
A distant price
The open doors reveal themselves as painted walls
A way to keep the hunger up
So we all run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Take anything you want
But got a lot
You never got a single thing with anything
Wake up
It's later than you know and you have to go
Cause now it's time to punch the clock
Now it's time to punch the clock
They shake all night and slave all day
And get nothing
They have nothing
And when exactly where we sold
That a good boy does just what he's told
Why did you choose lead over gold
When did we chose lead over gold
And said take
Anything you want
But you never got a lot
You never got a single with anything
WAKE UP
It's later than you know
And you have to go
Cause now it's time to punch the clock
Now it's time to punch the clock
Everyday and all brand new
It's an endless rerun starring me and you
We're just running in the wrong direction
Monkeys fascinated by their own reflections
A distant price
The open doors reveal themselves as painted walls
A way to keep the hunger up
So we all run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Run for the rabbit when the gate goes up
Take anything you want
But got a lot
You never got a single thing with anything
Wake up
It's later than you know and you have to go
Cause now it's time to punch the clock
Now it's time to punch the clock
