lyrics

Wake up, a little off, auto-pilot takes the wheel
Near miss, clenched fist, bluff your way to seal the deal
Going through the motions, nothing but an empty shell
Uneasiness, no interest, trapped in a stagnating hell

Hard toils, no spoils, unimpressed by all attempts
Superior intellect, moral fairness you’re exempt
All thumbs, you tool, fall from a modest perch
Impact damage, not the job but feel the hurt

Sitting there and your pockets are deep
False facade but you’re a creep
Looking out for number one
Screw us over by the tonne
Gorge yourself a little longer
We are coming and are much stronger
Waste your time seeking our mistakes
Unwilling to give just take, take, take

Stand over tactics, putting down to climb on up
Underestimate, assume we’ll bend and take the cuts
Know all, not quite, can’t comprehend your own rules
Back down, cave in, we may be fools but you’re the tools

Sitting there and your pockets are deep
False facade but you’re a creep
Looking out for number one
Screw us over by the tonne
Gorge yourself a little longer
We are coming and are much stronger
Waste your time seeking our mistakes
Unwilling to give just take, take, take

Proven wrong egg on your face
Playing dumb to try to save grace
Hoping that you’ll realise you are no better, your scum in our eyes

Sitting there and your pockets are deep
False facade but you’re a creep
Looking out for number one
Screw us over by the tonne
Gorge yourself a little longer
We are coming and are much stronger
Waste your time seeking our mistakes
Unwilling to give just take, take, take
