Lyrics
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
The assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
They take your fingerprints, the way you think
They got you down in pen and ink
They tell you you can do your very own thing
But try people, see the hurt it brings, yeah
Soon little boys learn to be ashamed of tears they cry
If a girl wants a football, someone must go in and ask her why
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
Look at your kindly lawyer, whom you turn to when in need
Steals with the other lawyer, makin' underhand deals
The judge gives his judgement with his holy book
Doesn't always go by facts but really how you look
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
Life should be beautiful too
There'll be no tomorrow, if we don't change the world
Life, we gotta try to change
To save our future children
The ones we haven't made
From the moment they're born
You know, from the moment they're born
They're on the line, line, line, line...
Line, line, line, line...
Line, line, line, line...
Line, line, line, line...
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messing with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messing with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messing with your mind
Hup, two, three, four
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
From the moment you're born
You're on the line, line
Assembly line
Keeps on messin' with your mind
