Be lucky you've got the mind enough to Take a look now and stop and think Not trudge through life with boots of lead Living for eat, sleep and drink It's like a sense of instinct restless and aware So little satisfies, yet there's so much there It's like a vision baby of how you'd love to be But the pain in your stomach, ain't on TV Here we are in Lifer City Here we are in another f**in' city Animals with machines from steel to dust Thoughts stored in special vials Drained from a brain before it rots away Electro, techno, super power Steel set in the mud and clay It ain't gettin' no better and it will get worse Understanding life today - maybe d**h ain't no curse It's a rat race and you're in the trap You're a Lifer, yeah what can you say?
