LIFE IN GAMELAND

 

A youth misspent by not joining the crowd

Refuse to play games and you're not allowed

 

But that's how it goes

Yeah that's how it goes

Oh that's how it goes

That's life in gameland

 

Learn for yourself? Why what do you mean?

Don't you know that we need you to feed our machines?

 

But that's how it goes

Yeah that's how it goes

Oh that's how it goes

That's life in gameland

 

We'll make sure your head is made out of wood

And we'll make you dig ditches like itinerants should

Or we'll turn you into pigeons

that can walk a figure-eight

We'll control all your emotions,

tell you what to love or hate and it's a

 

Blissful existence if you just play along

We'll have your mind to build on if you just play along

We'll waste your whole life for you if you

just play along

 

Please let us waste your time

Please let us waste your mind

Please

Please

Please.....

 

A youth misspent by not joining the crowd

Refuse to play games and you're not allowed

 

But that's how it goes

Yeah that's how it goes

Oh that's how it goes

That's life in gameland
