Nobody's Got Any Meat On Their Bones

And nobody's got any meat on their bones anymore Never seen so many frail little people before It never gets lifted The tension never breaks Nobody cares who's sitting on the throne anymore We've all grown too comfortable down sitting on the floor The focus shifted They're raising up the stakes Everybody's worried about the money they make Hey-yay, yeah, oh And nobody's got any gravel in their guts these days That silly sense of urgency just never goes away It never goes quiet The ticking never stops Everybody's living in a rut these days A million people climbing up a million different ways But they're never gonna find it Never gonna reach the top Everybody's working 'til their body fucking drops Hey-hey, yeah-oh It's what you do, is on your mind, is how you feel It's where you go, it's who you know, it's how you deal It's how you talk, it's how you walk, it's how you dress Whatever gives you that illusion of success Don't tell me that went over your head I'll tell you, you'll understand before you're dead It's what you do, is on your mind, is how you think It's how you eat, it's how you breathe, it's how you blink It's what you learn, it's what you earn, it's what you own As long as you're okay with doing it alone Don't tell me I gotta make myself more clear I'll tell you And nobody's got any meat on their bones 'round here This is where the spirit goes to rot and disappear They're gonna start you spinning They're gonna bleed you dry Everybody's stuck on their own down here This machine is running off of blood and sweat and tears But you'll never be finished They're never satisfied They got us thinking getting rich is dignified Hey-hey, yeah-oh
