Sit Pretty - The Honor System
Lines and rows
Rows and lines
Boundaries you don't dare to go outside
Take your beating with a smile
Everything is now for sale
What's the price
Of a stolen life
What's the salary
To line up like a soldier
Then march into the sea
Seen and heard
About their
New advances
King convenience got a new crown
I'd rather be
Left behind
Then be a well trained failure
So let's take
A commercial break
Pause this masterpiece
The only words from our sponsors
You can't have anything
There's a window
I've been trying to look out
There's some scenery
I've never seen before
But a few say
This cannot be allowed
Keep your heads and hands inside
Keep your single file lines
Keep it to yourself
Voices said to me
You don't need a f**king cubicle to be free
Sit alone
Play the guitar for hours
In this crumbling room that I call home now
Who's to say
Dreams are not allowed
Can you understand me now
Screaming it loud
I step back and take a look in from the outside
I see neon signs and traffic lights and lost time
