The Rules of the Game
Smile, its what they want to see.
Sit up straight and do not speak a word.
Nod your head and act like you agree.
Remember to be seen - but never heard.
Obey the regulations to the letter.
Blindly follow. Do not make a fuss.
Post them on the walls to learn them better.
Are you one of them... or one of us?
Of countless beings, you are merely one.
Face the ground and quickly fall in line.
You’ve heard of "rights," but really you have none.
Walk the trodden path and you’ll be fine.
I look around and can’t help feeling ill.
I’ve seen the light of progress slowly fade.
We know what’s wrong and yet do nothing still.
We’re men and women trapped in a charade.
You’ve heard the rules and now must make your choice.
Step up and leave the crowd, despite the cost.
Throw away the chains and use your voice.
Otherwise, game over. Freedom lost.
