Wage Slave

Working class scum of the world consume
 and commute and imbibe and repeat
 Living upon borrowed money and land that
 is owned by the hidden elite
 Hope is manufactured between the commercials
 and is taken to heart in the child
 Credit line kicks in to sustain aspirations,
 and another slave is thrown on the pile
 You labor
 Tread water
 Fed grain and
 Then slaughtered
 Economic system is a cage in pastels
 Orchestrated to keep you in debt
 Entertainment serves as a neon distraction
 Just so you forget
 A life spent eagerly paying the price
 But never acknowledging the cost
 Don't bother asking when we start to fight back
 The battle is over, we've already lost
 You're a wage slave
 I'm a wage slave
 We're all wage slaves
 We're all wage slaves
