Conditioning
Well you're not, you're not who you think you are
Well we think that you are John or Dave
But you're not, you're not who you think you are
Jumbled mass of preconceived ideas
From our birth we were given an identity
People told us we were great or small
From our birth we were given rules of right or wrong
Not forgetting the bullies at school
The world teaches us to think that life is full of limitations
The world tries to make us think that there are loads of limits
The world teaches us to think that life is full of limitations
The world tries to make us think that there are loads of limits
Welcome to Conditioning
Welcome to Conditioning
And as the world makes us feel great
And as the world makes us feel small
Oh so convinced of our identity
If we only knew it we just can't believe it we just won't believe it
Leading us to think that we are such a success
Conning us to think that we are just a failure
Leading us to think that we are so intelligent
Conning us to think that we are just a do-do do-do
Welcome to Conditioning
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Er, sorry, ha ha
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Well we think that you are John or Dave
But you're not, you're not who you think you are
Jumbled mass of preconceived ideas
From our birth we were given an identity
People told us we were great or small
From our birth we were given rules of right or wrong
Not forgetting the bullies at school
The world teaches us to think that life is full of limitations
The world tries to make us think that there are loads of limits
The world teaches us to think that life is full of limitations
The world tries to make us think that there are loads of limits
Welcome to Conditioning
Welcome to Conditioning
And as the world makes us feel great
And as the world makes us feel small
Oh so convinced of our identity
If we only knew it we just can't believe it we just won't believe it
Leading us to think that we are such a success
Conning us to think that we are just a failure
Leading us to think that we are so intelligent
Conning us to think that we are just a do-do do-do
Welcome to Conditioning
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Er, sorry, ha ha
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
Who is to say what is what
Welcome to Conditioning
