My heart beats in my head and it's thunderous Those caught in the rat race plunder us They know what's best for us They know what's best for us Gotta keep up, gotta get ahead Gotta go and get a job and work 'til I'm dead They know what's best for us They know what's best for us And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point Hold on, we just hold on for an exit And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point Hold on, we just hold on for an exit Out to defeat, out to defeat everyone Out to deceive, out to deceive anyone They know what's best for us They know what's best for us They're automatically given the authority Why? I don't know, it's a vile monstrosity They know what's best for us They know what's best for us And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point Hold on, we just hold on for an exit You see the purpose of the rat race defeats me When we're gone what's left behind? But there seems to be no end and no reason Yet we still carry on You see the purpose of the rat race defeats me When we're gone what's left behind? But there seems to be no END When you finally reach the front of the pack There's nothing there, just an endless barren track It goes on and on It goes on and on You know what? Let's get disqualified! Let's get disqualified! And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point Hold on, we just hold on for an exit And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point Hold on, we just hold on for an exit
