Lyrics 10' X 10' - Mower

10' X 10'

Drive nails in the walls that hold you
Art in artificial light
Poor fool decorates an altar
Then serves as sacrifice
Take a break, the perfect getaway
All accommodations paid
Relaxed surroundings soothe you
Designed to keep you tame
Ten by ten — you build the box, you learn to live in it
This is not where people belong
It’s just a matter of greed, it’s not a matter of room
This is not where people belong
How do the one percent steer with such power?
It’s wrong
It’s wrong
This is not where people belong
It’s just a matter of greed, it’s not a matter of room
This is not where people belong
How do the one percent steer with such power?
Old wealth accrues and it’s locked and gated
I start to think, why don’t we just take it?
We live and die
We should decide
No home a cage
No life a waste
You built the box, you learn to live in it
This is not where people belong
It’s just a matter of greed, it’s not a matter of room
This is not where people belong
How do the one percent steer with such power?
