Be lucky you've got the mind enough to Take a look now and stop and think Not trudge through life with boots of lead Living for eat, sleep and drink It's like a sense of instinct restless and aware So little satisfies, yet there's so much there It's like a vision baby of how you'd love to be But the pain in your stomach, ain't on TV Here we are in Lifer City Here we are in another fuckin' city Animals with machines from steel to dust Thoughts stored in special vials Drained from a brain before it rots away Electro, techno, super power Steel set in the mud and clay It ain't gettin' no better and it will get worse Understanding life today - maybe death ain't no curse It's a rat race and you're in the trap You're a lifer, yeah what can you say?
