[Verse 1]
[D]You're a well-paid scientist,
sci[Eb5]entist, you only talk in facts
[D]You know you're always right
[Eb5]'Cause you know how to prove it,
step-by-step
PhD [D]PhD PhD [Eb5]to show you're
smart with textbook for[D]mulas
But you're used up,
[Eb5]just like a factory hand

[Verse 2]
[Ab5]Something is [G]wrong here
You won't find [Gm]in on[F5] a shelf
[Ab5]You're well-paid, you're you're well-trained,
[G]you're you're tied to a [D]rack

[Verse 3]
[Eb5]
Company cocktails, got[D]ta go
Say the right thing [Eb5]don't fidget,
jockey for position
[D]Be polite in the[Eb5] pyramid you hate
[D]Sip that scotch, get that raise,
[Eb5]this ain't no party at all

[Verse 4]
[Ab5]Something is wrong [G]here
You won't find [Gm]in on[F5] a shelf
[G]You're well-paid, [Ab5]you're [G]you're well-trained,

[Verse 5]
[D]Cringe and tense up, [Bb]grind your teeth
And wipe your sweaty [C]palms
[D]Close your windows [Dm]driving [Bb]past
the lowlife [Bb5]company [C5]bar
They're [D]making [Bb]fun o[Bb5]f you[C5][A5][D][Ab5]
[A5][A][A5][A][A5][D][Ab5]

[A5]Ah, [D]even you[A]
You [Ab5]just p[A]unch the clock,
too [Ab5]scared to [A]punch [A5]your [A]boss[A5]

[Verse 7]
[A]When [Ab5]will you cr[G]ack?[Ab5]
[A]When [Bb5]will y[Ab5]ou crack?[G][Ab5]
[A]When [A5]will [Ab5]you[G]
[G5]Open your eyes[D], open your eyes,
open your [F5]eyes?
[D][Eb5][D][Eb5]

[Verse 8]
[D]Pull
up to your sterile [Eb5]home,
you're drained
Bite the heads off of [D]your kids
Chew them well, they taste [Eb5]like you,

[Verse 9]
just slam the door
[D]As signed here 'cause your
com[Eb5]pany owns the land
All your colleagues live [D]here too
Private guards in golf [Eb5]carts

[Verse 10]
keep you safe at home?
[Ab5]Something is wrong [G]here
You won't find in [F5]on a shelf
[G]You're well-paid, [Ab5]you're you're well-trained,
[G]you're you're tied to [D]a rack

[A][D][Ab5]

[Verse 12]
[A]
[Ab5]The da[A]rk shatte[D]red underb[A]elly
[D]of the Amer[A]ican dream
Avoid it like the plague

[A]your bathroom mirror
[Ab5]Drown![A]
