Toes To the Line
Credit cards, color TV
Stocks and bonds, commodities
Stereo and VCR
Car phones and a brand new car
Working hours from nine to five
The battle ground where I must strive
To beat the boys at their own game
To reach the top, and make a name
Morning coffee, dress to leave
My father's hand comes through my sleeve
Soul long numb through actor's art
I steal my soul to play my part
If I fail at this charade
Then of my soul I've made pour trade
Without a thought they teach what taught
And dearly bought
The individual dies from the narration
Lifeless lumps, cold coal for eyes
The child becomes that so despised
Stocks and bonds, commodities
Stereo and VCR
Car phones and a brand new car
Working hours from nine to five
The battle ground where I must strive
To beat the boys at their own game
To reach the top, and make a name
Morning coffee, dress to leave
My father's hand comes through my sleeve
Soul long numb through actor's art
I steal my soul to play my part
If I fail at this charade
Then of my soul I've made pour trade
Without a thought they teach what taught
And dearly bought
The individual dies from the narration
Lifeless lumps, cold coal for eyes
The child becomes that so despised
