"All Stick & No Carrot" lyrics

"All Stick & No Carrot"

Told what to buy while they all steal
Made to hustle for my next meal
Told to work while being broke
Told to speak while being choked

Let's hide in bars instead of factories
Let's pick our scars for our amusement

You stay inside the lines while they adjust the picture
All these things we get to own, all these things we get to own
They own you too

Do you think there's a winner? Do you think it's you?
We're clever rats following a flute
Ah, it's too much, it's too much
It's never enough

Why do we lie all the time?
Honor me, love me, buy me
Just don't see me

Do you think there's a winner?
Do you think it's you?
Do you think there's a winner?
It's not you
There's no truth to be found
When you look in the mirror
No truth to be found
No winner

Why do we lie all the time?
Honor me, love me, buy me
Just don't see me
Don't see me
It's too much
It's too much
It's never enough
