| Built-in reflexes, don’t even know how I get it done
|
| I get my cheques but it’s been so long since I’ve seen the sun
|
| Blank and cold, I know it’s so hard to disguise
|
| The void inside, can’t hide, you tell it by the look in my eyes
|
| I’m a mindless cog, I’m a Pavlov’s dog, I’m conditioned to perform
|
| I was given a role, prepared scenario
|
| The day I was born in 1984
|
| Hush now, don’t you cry
|
| Wipe the tears from your eyes
|
| Dream about perfect skies
|
| While I sing you lullabies,
|
| Soon you’ll forget about your silly pain
|
| Just take this pill, it’ll make you smile again
|
| These feelings will go away
|
| You’ll carry on, my precious love,
|
| For one more day
|
| I do what’s expected, I’m just a pawn in the master plan
|
| My TV screen’s my change of scene, I’m like everyone
|
| They say it’s alright as long as I respond to stimuli
|
| Cause I’ve got no soul,
|
| They bought it such a long time ago
|
| I’m a mindless cog, I’m a Pavlov’s dog
|
| I’m designed to be controlled
|
| I was given a role, prepared scenario
|
| The day I was born in 1984
|
| Hush now, don’t you cry
|
| Wipe the tears from your eyes
|
| Dream about perfect skies
|
| While I sing you lullabies,
|
| Soon you’ll forget about your silly pain
|
| Just take this pill, it will make you smile again
|
| These feelings will go away
|
| You’ll carry on, my precious love,
|
| For one more day
|
| I just live to work to live
|
| I just live to work to live… |
