Machine Dream

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

[Chorus:]

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 Jones' always win

Simple human race

All value placed on face

Push, work, sweat, one more try

Give it up!
