My heart beats in my head and it's thunderous

Those caught in the rat race plunder us

They know what's best for us

They know what's best for us



Gotta keep up, gotta get ahead

Gotta go and get a job and work 'til I'm dead

They know what's best for us

They know what's best for us



And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point

Hold on, we just hold on for an exit

And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point

Hold on, we just hold on for an EXIIIT



Out to defeat, out to defeat everyone

Out to deceive, out to deceive anyone

They know what's best for us

They know what's best for us



Who holds the master key givin to authority (WHAT?)

I don't know, it's a foul monstrosity

They know what's best for us

They know what's best for us



And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point

Hold on, we just hold on for an exit

And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point

Hold on, we just hold on for an exit



You see the purpose of the rat race defeats me

When we're gone what's left behind?

But there seems to be no end or reason

Yet we still carry on



You see the purpose of the rat race defeats me

When we're gone what's left behind?

But there seems to be no END



When you finally reach the front of the pack

There's nothing there, just and endless barren track



It goes on and on

It goes on and on



You know what?

Let's get disqualified!

Let's get disqualified!



And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point

Hold on, we just hold on for an exit

And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point

Hold on, we just hold on for an exit
