World Machine-Level 42

Level 42 - World Machine Some folks try To multiply From sunrise to sunset Leave behind More of their kind So no one will forget But that ain't where i'm coming from - today Those easy girls don't turn me on - anyway I wanna know where my pride has gone The party's over Caught in a dream Inside this world machine Teachers teach And preachers preach Of spiritual evolution But this big i am From uncle sham Just adds to my confusion I've seen his face, I've heard his song - before But i don't care what time he's on - anymore I must have been on the streets too long The party's over Caught in a dream Inside this world machine I find myself outside your door Trying to make it like before But you don't follow what i say And i can tell by your smile You're no longer a child That part of you was buried yesterday . . . . . . who knows Why they come and where they go In this world machine? It's the chosen fools Who make the rules That don't apply to me With their fast-car games And counter claims Not my reality And i don't know if i belong - today I don't know why my friends have gone - away I must have been on the streets too long The party's over Caught in a dream Inside this world machine (don't knock the system - we'll knock some sense in you Don't beat the system - there's nothing you can do)
