As soon as your born they make you feel small,
By giving you no time instead of it all,
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
------
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules
------
When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
Then they expect you to pick a career,
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
------
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
But you're still fucking peasents as far as I can see
------
There's room at the top they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
