Lyrics

Bow your head to the grindstone
That somebody else has always owned
Overtime we work to find our way
While the rich get richer
We still got bills to pay
Was it worth so many hours
Did you fight to get that raise
When the church is made of dollars
It's money that you praise
Yeah, yeah
The unexamined life
It ain't worth living twice
Just a spinning wheel inside of this device
So get in line and do your time
A broken clock that's right twice a day
At five and nine
Now we sell it by the hour
Another little piece of soul
The machine will soon devour
Any hope that you could hold
Yeah, yeah
The candle's burning brighter when it's burning at both ends
It won't get any lighter
Yeah
Oh
Oh
Was it worth so many hours
Did you fight to get that raise
When the church is made of dollars
It's money that you praise
Yeah, yeah
The candle's burning brighter when it's burning at both ends
It won't get any lighter though your heavy heart defends
Defends
Your heavy heart defends
Defends
Your heavy heart defends
