Album: Soak Your Brain
Whatever you're buyin' he's sellin'
He'll be the merchant that you wish him to be
Whatever you're takin' he's givin'
Don't be deluded 'cause it's never for free
Just another case
Of well-meaning goin' bad
Social engineering – what a fad
That tolerance just won't take care of me
Only platitudes as far as the eye can see
Hey you keep your hands off my stuff
I work hard every day
And it don't seem enough
Hey you keep your hands off my pay
I sure don't need you
To whittle it away
Whatever you gamble he'll wager
The wheel is spinnin'
And he's holdin' your deed
Whatever is workin' he's fixin'
But it sure strains credulity
Just another good intention gone awry
Without motivation kiss it all goodbye
They like to fetter
Everybody's hopes and dreams
Taking what I work for is Tyranny
Whatever is nob1e
Whatever is upright
Whatever is trustworthy
Don't throw it all away
Whatever's objective
Whatever's incentive
Whatever is beautiful
Just another good intention gone awry
With naivete you can kiss it all goodbye
They like to fetter
Everybody's hopes and dreams
Only platitudes as far as the eye can see
