Brainwashed |
| You look like a real human being |
| But you don’t have a mind of your own |
| Yeah, you can talk, you can breathe |
| You can work, you can stitch, you can sew |
| But you’re brainwashed |
| Yes you are, yes you are |
| Get down on your knees |
| You’ve got a job and a house |
| And a wife, and your kids and a car |
| Yeah, you’re content just to be |
| What they want you to be |
| And be happy to be where you are |
| Yes you are |
| Get down on your knees |
| Get down on your knees |
| The aristocrats and bureaucrats |
| Are dirty rats |
| For making you what you are |
| They’re up there and you re down here |
| You’re on the ground and they’re up with the stars |
| All your life they’ve kicked you around and pushed you around |
| Till you can’t take any more |
| To them you’re just a speck of dirt |
| But you don’t want to get up off the floor |
| Mister you’re just brainwashed |
| They give you social security |
| Tax saving benefits that grow at maturity |
| Yeah, you’re content just to be |
| What they want you to be |
| And to do what they want you to |
| Yes you are, yes you are |
| Get down on your knees |
