Check the Color of Your Collar

from Death of the Dream by Channel the Animal

/

lyrics

Experience is just a ruse that they use
To make you quake in your shoes
And grovel for your food
It’s their Zen…

That work will make you rich, and work will set you free
If you keep your nose to the grindstone,
Soon you’ll have enough to be
One of them

The realization that this is your life now…is settling in

So pull up your bootstraps, get it in gear
We’re gonna drive! [DRIVE!] until the money appears
Put on your best smile, perk up that chin
There’s customers waiting, they gotta get in

[Enslavement!] Servitude!
[Make us] some fancy food!
I’m drowning, I’m sunk
I’m dying, I’m drunk!

I need therapy from retail
Oh, give me a break
A lunch break? A summer break!

Time…it’s time…you’re on the climb
So celebrate the forfeiture of your life

And now, a fanfare for the common man!

The disrespect is just part of the job
So suck it up, buck it up, polish the knob
A means to an end, but there seems to be no end in sight

oh, JUST GET TO WORK
