Spend your life for the powers that say they be
"I ain't never worked for nothin see"
Now that's all of which that we're aware
Sucked into the great American nightmare
Life ain't nothin but a paycheck in your hand
From your sweat to the bank to the government man
We start out young and foolish and end up old and poor
Utility tax man knocks on your broken door
Childhood memories, I hope that you enjoyed them
Lookin for a job, well you just pick your own poison
Blue collar sap with white collar ambitions
He don't have no chance but just to take what they're dishin
Class structure shinin as it has for years
Kept nice and shiny by the workin man's tears
Cut the middle rungs out the corporate ladder
Workin man, good luck, cuz to them you don't matter
Workin man, good luck, cuz to them you don't matter
Workin man, good luck, cuz to them you don't matter
Workin man, good luck, cuz to them you don't matter
Workin man, good luck, cuz to them you don't matter anyway
