Slave To The System Lyrics - Singles - Slave To The System

The road before you see it coming, everything is there 

A change is necessary, a better nation's in the air 

All around you vicious barracudas tearing out your back 

A sleazy manifesto feeds the revolution that you lack 

Dirty hands are itching, dirty eyes are glowing in your path 

Weasel minds are working, dreaming dollar signs that last and last 

Promising the sky chasing the ambulance of plastic life 

Smiling as they tie you down, the deal is done, the rope is tight 

They light the fires inside your brain and what it is I can't explain 

You must believe in all you do that better days are coming soon 

So open up your very soul and lay it out, they will behold 

And if you do, you'll never be a slave to the system 

Speak in quips and phrases cryptic and distinguished heart and soul 

Now the backs are breaking, feel the pressure and do as you're told 

Crawling out of corporate vacuums now they've got you by the balls 

Just another black hole for believers like yourself to fall 

They light the fires inside your brain and what it is I can't explain 

You must believe in all you do that better days are coming soon 

So open up your very soul and lay it out, they will behold 

And if you do, you'll never be a slave to the system 

[Incomprehensible] 

Now the world is listening, tell them something that they may not know 

The minions and their grand delusions always come and go 

We're beaming down by satellite this guerrilla warfare point of view 

Manipulate the monster before it brings a change in you 

They light the fires inside your brain and what it is I can't explain 

You must believe in all you do that better days are coming soon 

So open up your very soul and lay it out, they will behold 

And if you do, you'll never be a slave to the system 

We're all slaves, slave to the system 

We're all slaves, slave to the system
