lead over gold - whitey lyrics

Loading...

why do people live this way?
they shake all night
and slave all day
and get nothing
they have nothing

and when exactly were we sold
that a good boy does just what he’s told?
why did he choose lead over gold?
when did we choose lead over gold?

they said take anything you want
but you never got a lot
you never got a single thing
worth anything
wake up
it’s later than you know
and you have to go ’cause
now it’s time to punch the clock
now it’s time to punch the clock

everyday and all brand new
it’s an endless rerun
starring me and you
we’re just running in the wrong directions
monkey fascinated by our own reflections
a distant prize
the open doors
reveal themselves as
painted walls
a way to keep the hunger up
so we all run for the rabbit
when the gate goes up

run for the rabbit
when the gate goes up
[repeat x8]

take anything you want
but you never got a lot
you never got a single thing
worth anything
wake up
it’s later than you know
and you have to go ’cause
now it’s time to punch the clock
now it’s time to punch the clock

lead over gold
[repeat x16]

suck out all the life
’til the money runs dry, yeah
there’s worms in the apple
and there’s trails in the sky
a lot more money
and a lot less soul
bang the peg into the hole
the peg into the hole
