| It’s all part of the money machine, the money machine
|
| It’s all part of the capitalist scheme, the money machine
|
| Makes you forget you’re a human being
|
| And I call it the money machine
|
| So you can. |

|
| Go to school, study real hard, get your college degree
|
| It’s the American Dream, set up for you and me
|
| To keep you from being free
|
| Work from 9 to 5 sometimes overtime, just to pay your bills
|
| The American Dream set up for you and me
|
| By the jerks on Capitol Hill
|
| Then one day, when you’re sixty-five
|
| Ain’t got no reason to stay alive
|
| Just sit at home waiting for your check
|
| Personally I’d rather be hanging by the neck
|
| So you can. |
