The Corporate Enthusiast

The corporate beast has got me
I've fallen in the trap
This beast it feeds on me
I'm never coming back

You've sucked the truth out of me
Abolished honesty
I can't escape, it's got me
Independence dying slowly

Welcome to the Machine
Welcome to the Machine
It's eating me alive
Welcome to the Machine
Welcome to the Machine
Sell out your life or die

In pursuit of your polished altars
You dream in presidents
Sell your god, sell your faith
And market prices are rising fast

I never asked for this
My intentions were pure
I never meant to enlist
In the corporate music war

Welcome to the Machine
Welcome to the Machine
It's eating me alive
Welcome to the Machine
Welcome to the Machine
Sell out your life or die

Your world is painted mint green
You believe green is everything

This machine has taken me away
This machine has got me

The corporate beast has got me
I've fallen in the trap
This beast it feeds upon me
I'm never coming back

Welcome to the Machine
Welcome to the Machine
It's eating me alive
Welcome to the Machine
Welcome to the Machine
Sell out your life or die
