I hear they're trying to make us all the same 

It's mind control by any other name 

Who's gonna pay the price 

For this foolish paradise 

Oh-Momma don't take that train 



I hear it said we're headed too far south 

Chinese whispers go by word of mouth 

Rules for every size and shape 

The nag has gone, shut the gate 

Once you're in you're never getting out 



I'm so misunderstood 

There goes my manlihood 

She's in my face again 

With that picture of innocence 



No drinks, No smokes 

No dicking around 

No dirty jokes 

Straight lace, straight face 

The old straight jacket 

We got no hope 



I hear they're gonna try out something new 

I can feel it sticking to my shoe 

So this is what tomorrow holds 

Hopes and dreams are bought and sold 

But still the world is misty green and blue 



I', so misunderstood 

There goes my mannish boyhood 

She's in my face again 

With that picture of innocence 



No deals, No strokes 

No forbidden fruit 

No holy smoke 

What next, no sex 

That's the end of the road 

That's the end of the road 

We got no hope 



No drinks, No smokes 

No dicking around 

No dirty jokes 

Straight lace, straight face 

The old straight jacket 

We got no hope 



No deals, No strokes 

No forbidden fruit 

No holy smoke 

What next, no sex 

That's the end of the road 

We got no hope
