The industrial revolution
Has led to our delusion
Thinking what we do is worthwhile
I've come to the conclusion
That choice is an illusion
We're dead inside but putting up a smile
Tube lights buzzing away in the night
Checking my mail all the time
'Til I'm straining my eyes
A total waste of time
You won't be satisfied
'Cus all we do is grind
But I don't mind
Our modern education
Is mental castration
Which takes away your curiosity
Our whole population
Succumbing to temptation
We've done away our old philosophy
But hey, hustling everyday
Grinding my troubles away
So I'm never afraid
A total waste of time
You won't be satisfied
'Cus all we do is grind
But I don't mind
But hey, hustling everyday
Grinding my troubles away
So I'm never afraid
But hey, hustling everyday
Grinding in every way
So I'm never afraid
