See the slave going through the motions

Death dance, no resistance

Obey orders, don't ask questions

Keep going through the motions

You know you're free, really

You know you're free, really

Slave

See the slave kneel and pray

For another perfect day

Sense of freedom, just an illusion

Keep going through the motions

Know your place, stay safe in bed

The nasty world won't invade your head

Keep going through the motions

Don't ask any awkward questions

Keep going through the motions

Keep going through the motions

Slave

See the slave move in a straight line

And wedding bells chime

Take the money, don't ask questions

Keep going through the motions

The cage is open, stay inside

And spit on those who would venture outside

See the puppet dance to a strange tune

Don't ask questions, just consume

Don't ask questions

Slave
