I feel like I'm only half awake
Like a walking in a maze with a goal that’s never clear
Dreaming of a better life than this
But today’s another day, it’s a tune that’s on repeat

Hey now!
No time for useless reveries
I can't give up right now
Or my life will turn to dust!

Luckily, we have all these bits and bobs
To keep us pacified
Ignorant to what is wrong

No more slacking!
I'm on the job!
Yes, I know that everyone has to play their part
We're all told that work will give us life
This is the price of freedom, indeed!
We've got our sole duty
For the greater good
We keep the wheels turning round
Come on!
Rev the engine of this beast!
Dream Eating Machine

Nurturing the youngest of us all
They'll never see it coming
The things we have in store
Just enjoy the good moments while you can

Today might be the day
You'll be made to play your part
Everyone can be made to fit a mold
It's a matter of time
Even diamonds can be crushed

Hey! This isn't the thing I had in mind
Darling, what did you think?
That the world was made for you?

No more slacking!
I'm on the job!
Yes, I know that everyone has to play their part
We're all told that work will give us life
This is the price of freedom, indeed!
We've got our sole duty
For the greater good
We keep the wheels turning round
Come on!
Rev the engine of this beast!

Here we are
In the end
Don't look back, it's too late to turn
If we think of all we have lost

Can we really say we're alright?
Progress seems to be the thing we all adore
Hurry, pick up the pace
Or you will get left behind

Look sharp!
Don't let them see you're at wit's end
You're a grown up
So shoulder the burdens of this life!

No more slacking!
I'm on the job!
Yes, I know that everyone has to play their part
We're all told that work will give us life
This is the price of freedom, indeed!
We've got our sole duty
For the greater good
We keep the wheels turning round
Come on!
Rev the engine of this beast!
