You look like a real human being
But you don't have a mind of your own
Yeah, you can talk, you can breathe
You can work, you can stitch, you can sew
But you're brainwashed
Yes you are, yes you are
Get down on your knees

You've got a job and a house
And a wife and your kids and your car
Yeah, you're conditioned to think
What they want you to think and be happy to be where you are
Yes you are
Get down on your knees
Get down on your knees

The aristocrats and bureaucrats
Are dirty rats for making you what you are
They're up there and you're down here
You're on the ground and they're up with the stars

All your life they've kicked you around and pushed you around
'Til you can't take anymore
To them you're just a speck of dirt
But you don't want to get up off the floor
Mister you're just brainwashed
They give you social security
Tax saving benefits that grow at maturity
Yeah, you're content just to be what they want you to be
And to do what they want you to
Yes you are, yes you are
Get down on your knees
