Plugged In Lyrics

Check it out yo...hey check it out yo...

Overdose on tradition, I put it to the question
Man I've had enough of this sedated, B-rated generation
With the movers and the shakers, the boss, the tax prayers
It's the coaches and the cops who breed the slave drivers
Working minimum wage, no raise, so no escape
Remote controls and lipstick uphold the masquerade
So shiny and happy, content with a sales pitch
A broken back and an empty pocket is all you're left with...

Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
Sterilized...You're half human you're half machine
Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
We won't be sterilized...You're half human you're half machine...yeah...

You get plugged in...
We're all plugged in...

It's a beach ball circus, a saturated market
Commercials and malls, life is never that perfect
First they show the family, the job, the smiles not the bruises
Unless it fits the script to strenghten the illusion
Do the slag on the "f***", on the ones who wear rags
Make a blockbuster movie on the losers who never had
A dime or the time or the chance to make it right
It's hard to feel alive looking in from the outside...
Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
Sterilized...You're half human you're half machine
Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
We won't be sterilized...You're half human you're half machine...

Slackers in the schoolyards, hookers prowl the malls
Custodians of my his-story predict our slowing crawl
And my costume's made for the last charade and I settle for the storm
Held hostage in my living room by the goons who protect my door

Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
Sterilized...You're half human you're half machine
Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
We won't be sterilized...You're half human you're half machine...yeah...
You get plugged in...
We're all plugged in...

In upper c**ture categories hormones laced with technology
Hamburgers and flags? Man that's only entertainment
It's the same old game, no, the channel hasn't changed
Still planting macho legends in our cereal everyday
There's a smile in the aisle and a slogan for all the seasons
Decorate the f****** tree with rubber checks and advertising
Stay plugged in, neck and neck with your neighbours
A legacy of name brand garbage to acquire...

Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
Sterilized...You're half human you're half machine
Synchronized...Life is born on my static screen
We won't be sterilized...You're half human you're half machine...yeah...

We won't be synchronized...
We won't be sterilized...
