Where Will You Hide?

Worked ourselves to the bone for nothing, maybe less
In exchange, all they gave us back were a couple scraps
In between dreams, the seams of this waking trance
Are starting to pull apart; now everybody is starting to ask
About the pennies to billions they made
About the millions they made sure we'd never make
Cause we didn't deserve it; because we didn't earn it
Cause we didn't break our backs quite quick enough for what they had in mind

Weekend's coming soon, this isn't gonna last
Gonna put on my dancing shoes, I'm gonna go all out
Monday's coming, but who really gives a damn
All I know is that right now I answer to no man
Everybody clap your hands to the beat
Move your feet like you don't gotta worry 'bout nothing
Not their twisted appetites or their brainwashed acolytes
Who crack the whips for nothing more than 3 extra bucks an hour
They think that they have power
As long as you believe them that's all that's gonna matter

They told you robber barons when you were a kid
That the feds fought 'em toe to toe and came out ahead
But truth is, feds and suits go hand in hand
They just found themselves a new way to make you smile as you beg
Watch your rent raise and your paycheck decrease
Money can't buy happiness, but poverty can't buy a goddamned thing
So what are you gonna do? What options can you pursue?
Is it worth the suffering they put you through?

Like, what more do you even want?
Does subjugation meant that much?
You say I've got no options left and I don't give a fuck

It must seem like the good times will never end
But nature goes in cycles, flows and ebbs
Sooner or later, change is gonna rise
When revolution comes, where will you hide?
Where will you hide?
Go run and hide
Go run and hide
