lyrics

They pack us tightly onto trains
Give us a number to replace our names
Work us till we're skin and bones
Then bury us in our debts and loans

A T.V. in every home
Two cars and a telephone
We become what we own
Never felt so alone

Wake Up
The truth is out there and it wants to be found
Wake Up
And their lies will scatter all over the ground

They tell us what we need to fear
The dangers close, but the threats not clear
Could be a plague, a bomb, a flu
Or the person next to you

Chorus

Well they bought us out and they bought us cheap
Then told us to go back to sleep
And it's easier just to obey
Then face the fact that we live this way
