歌词
Empty faces they fall into place
So confused but they join in the race
Punching time cards
to keep a nine to five
Automation, it keeps them alive
When you rise to be someone they
put you on hold
'Cause that same old song's got
them searchin' for gold
Politicaians they sell you their dreams
Though they don't realize what they mean
Tainted hands rest on soft and easy chairs
It's the sign of the times everywhere
When you rise to be someone they
put you on hold
'Cause that same old song's got
them searchin' for gold
While the man on the street has
to work every day
All the big shots ride around in limousines
Take a step into the future tell
me what you see
Is it true what wisemen say or
is it make believe
Can you take the pressure when
you're forced into the race
On a one-way journey to a colony in space
Empty faces they fall into place
So confused but they join in the race
Punching time cards
to keep a nine to five
Automation, it keeps them alive
When you rise to be someone they
put you on hold
'Cause that same old song's got
them searchin' for gold
Neon signs light the dark city streets
Noisy peddlers they turn on the heat
Revolutions they take their turn around
Bad relations don't gain any ground
When you rise to be someone they
put you on hold
'Cause that same old song's got
them searchin' for gold
When I walk on the edge where
I'm losing control
No material thing can make me
lose my control
I don't think I'll rest at ease
to think you'll change the laws
When you send our sons away to
fight your stupid wars
Wasting hard earned money to
support your master plan
But your nuclear answer brings
destruction to your hands
Sacred are the few who try to save the universe
Even though the dawn is near to say goodbye
To what we once called paradise
Take a step into the future tell
me what you see
Is it true what wisemen say or
is it make believe
Can you take the pressure when
you're forced into the race
On a one-way journey to a colony in space
I don't think I'll rest at ease
to think you'll change the laws
When you send our sons away to
fight your stupid wars
Wasting hard earned money to
support your master plan
