The Game

It’s the way of the world and there’s nowhere to go,

We dance in our chains all the way to the grave.

Hey, hey there it’s fine, it’s all part of the show.

We are all part of the machine and society’s slave.

We dance in our chains all the way to the grave.

Fight, fight the good fight!

We are all part of the machine and society’s slave.

It doesn’t matter if you're right.

Fight, fight the good fight!

Hey, hey there it’s fine, it’s all part of the show.

It doesn’t matter if you're right.

It’s the way of the world and there’s nowhere to go.
