lyrics

Worldwide Individuals,
Locked down like we're criminals,
Living by the rules,
We get a little fed up with

Feeling like we're fools
Treated like we're sheep
Fed to Big Bad Wolves
In a system they corrupted

We might be too old to die young
Living Fast Still feels like living
Flying too close to the sun
Sailing too close to the wind
Grind our bones to make some dough
Grind our bones to make some bread
WHITE COLLARS
MAKIN DOLLARS
FOR A WORLD THAT TAKES OUR CENTS

Feelings of Suspicion,
Six O' Clock News on the television
Cooking up a storm
Are we just a little bored

Live to work to make a living
Like a dead horse they'll keep whippin
Kept in place by laws
They create to take what's yours

We might be too old to die young
Living Fast Still feels like living
Flying too close to the sun
Sailing too close to the wind
Grind our bones to make some dough
Grind our bones to make some bread
WHITE COLLARS
MAKIN DOLLARS
FOR A WORLD THAT TAKES OUR CENTS
