Conceived in captivity
Bred in a breadline
the firing squad
Handcuffed to a treadmill on an assembly line
Routine taught me to read
and freewill told me to write
This is all that you'll ever be
said the boss as he whipped me back to life
life, life, life
Just climb that ladder
climb that ladder
climb that ladder
climb that ladder
climb that ladder
climb that ladder
it's getting better
climb that ladder
climb that ladder
just climb that ladder
climb that ladder
climb
Yes sir I'll work my life away
I'll lie to you about everything
Yes sir I'll work my life away
I'll lie to you about everything
Yes sir I'll work my life away
I'll lie to you about everything
Yes sir I'll work my life away
And lie to you about everything
Empty, Hey How Ya Feel?
Ain't it fun standing there waiting for something real
The boss called me two times told me to come in early
The boss called me to tell me to stop starting over
Empty, Hey How Ya Feel?
Purgatory smoke break, I need an idea
Climb the ladder grab the whip and no ones whipping you
Tell your kids that when they're older they can climb up to
WoAh
Yes sir I'll work my life away
I'll lie to you about everything
Yes sir I'll work my life away
and lie to you about everything
Yes sir I'll work my life away
I'll lie to you about everything
Yes sir I'll work my life away
and lie to you about everything
