What is this empty sensation?
Could be possible an emancipation?
I feel like I’ve run for ages,
but my view are the same old stages
Was this my own idea?
Induced cravings, empty possessions
Permanent tattoos in temporary bodies
Late-night store hedonism
onanism until late in the day
Do you care how I feel?
Are you are here still? (are you here still… are you here still…)
Run, run, run hamster on the wheel
aren’t you getting tired of this plastic feel?
Run, run, run hamster on the wheel
will you realize you are here standing still?
“It’s a wonderful life” movie extract:
Here, you're all businessmen here. Doesn't it make them better citizens? Doesn't it make them better customers? You... you said... what'd you say a minute ago? They had to wait and save their money before they even thought to think of a decent home. Wait? Wait for what? Until their children grow up and leave them? Until they're so old and broken down that they... Do you know how long it takes to a working man to save $5,000?
The path is laid out by the others
You have to follow the orders
Here, play with your toys, eat this fodder
So we can control your behavior.
Run, run, run hamster on the wheel
aren’t you getting tired of this plastic feel?
Run, run, run hamster on the wheel
will you realize you are here standing still?
Now repeat after me: "I am free"
Please repeat after me: "I am free"
Now repeat after me: "I am free"
Please repeat after me
Run, run, run hamster on the wheel
aren’t you getting tired of this plastic feel?
Run, run, run hamster on the wheel
will you realize you are here standing still?
