Do the Work

Modern slaves are not in chains
 Do you get wet
 Or do you feel the rain?
 You can count on loss
 But you can't count on change
 So do no harm, and cause no pain
 Now I ain't got time to play
 No, not today
 Satan pushed me in a corner
 And changed the rules of the game
 You work, slave, feel your way
 'Til the sun goes down
 'Til the end of your days
 But if you wanna have a good life, do the work
 Or see your name in the spotlight, do the work
 If you want those good things
 Good things in your life
 Do the work, do the work, do the work
 Now I got no regrets
 And nothing up my sleeve
 I keep those matters to myself
 Or so you may believe
 I've seen the struggle
 And the pain it brings
 Ruled by wolves, owned by pigs
 Now I ain't got time to fight
 No, not tonight
 But the devils in the details
 And Lord knows that ain't right
 If you wanna have a good life, do the work
 See your name in the spotlight, do the work
 If you want those good things
 Good things in your life
 Do the work, do the work, do the work
 Crawl 'til you can walk
 And I'll meet you on the way out
 Walk 'til you can run
 Take your fingers to the bone
 You can play
 But you pay and you pay! Do what
 ♪
 Hmm now, you pushed me in a corner
 And changed the rules of the game
 But I say, oh
 If you wanna have a good life, do the work
 See your name in the spotlight, do the work
 If you want those good things
 Good things in your life
 Do the work, do the work, do the work
 Do the work
 Do the work
 Do the work
 Do the work
