Rich man in the centre
With the chosen few
Between those who can do
And those who just won't do
All the doors we ran into
All the doors we'll push right through
Firewalls and corridors
Marble hears new footsteps fall.
All the walls we ran into
All the walls we'll push right through
Rip up rules and stumbling blocks
Pick up speed like falling rocks
Sell the idea
That one day it could be you
And you'll join the chosen few
Yes, you'll join the chosen few
So you tolerate inequality
Thinking one day it will be me
And I'll be rich happy and free
Rich, happy, free.
All the elite were on the street
And they were begging
And they couldn't understand
Why no one was helping
'Cause they'd long since
Bred out our empathy
With non-stop news
And furious apathy
I never did put my hand up to ask
How did I get on this side
Of the bullet proof glass
No reality and no bullet can reach me
This glass class divider protects me
And in this plush prison
I've grown to resent
The tedious restrictions of my government
And now I'd like to impose
These limitations on you
I build a mental prison for you
Same as the one I was voted into.

This is a great and, strangely, underrated album. The elegant melody of "Leafy Lane" , the repressed rage of "Sci-Clone" the haunting beauty of "Orange". Invest in it now. Chaos a Go-Go
