I fight the system 'cause I'm offended
Know what it means to be a p___
Manipulated beyond all reason
You can't decide what's right or wrong

[Chours]
Absorb the pressure. avoid the pain
See the factory. it's just a prison

Life sentence just so you can eat
You're just a number, they'll sacrifice you
Replace you with a new machine
You think they're loyal. you think they care
You think you'll never lose your job
You're just a sucker, if you don't wake up
One day you'll find out that you're gone

[Chours]
Absorb the pressure. avoid the pain
See the factory. it's just a prison

What are we doing. creating a system
Resulting in meaningless lives?
Instead of improving. we're always abusing
Too selfish to ever be wise
Busting our b___s in a rush to get nowhere
Just look what we're leaving behind
A trail of destruction, self-centred obstruction
It's time to start using our minds

[Chours]
Fight the system. lose the pain

Lacking in courage. afraid of the future
Pretending that everything's fine
How will it feel when you're forty years old
And you're dumped from the factory line
Plan your escape 'cause it's certain to happen
The day when you're through is at hand
Sucker for punishment, here is your warning
Be ready before you get canned

[Chours]
Fight the system. lose the pain

Feel the pressure, this life's insane
