Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
You live this fuckin' rat race
You think it gets you some place
You're sold a bill of goods and taken in
Perfections calling but you can't repay
Your reflections appalling so harder you try

You sit and puff that stogie
That's your third cup of coffee
But still you count those calories
You can't win

TV's the crime
Training your mind
No pain, no gain
The pounds you retain

Machine dream
Machine dream believe
Machine dream
Machine dream believe

The pressure that you're feeling
More corporate wheeling, dealing
Eat this, buy that, you fat rat
Be perfect too!

The image is perfections
The difference is what's inside
The shell is all that matters
All the toys that you buy

Chorus

You're catching up with them
But the Joneses always win
Simple human race
All value placed on face,
Push, work, sweat, one more try
Give it up!
You live this fuckin' rat race  You think it gets you some place  You're sold a bill of goods and taken in  Perfections calling but you can't repay  Your reflections appalling so harder you try    You sit and puff that stogie  That's your third cup of coffee  But still you count those calories  You can't win    TV's the crime  Training your mind  No pain, no gain  The pounds you retain    Machine dream  Machine dream believe  Machine dream  Machine dream believe    The pressure that you're feeling  More corporate wheeling, dealing  Eat this, buy that, you fat rat  Be perfect too!    The image is perfections  The difference is what's inside  The shell is all that matters  All the toys that you buy    Chorus    You're catching up with them  But the Joneses always win  Simple human race  All value placed on face,  Push, work, sweat, one more try  Give it up!
