Big Machine

Stand straight
Fall back in line
Comb your hair
Get to work on time
Everyone
In the big machine
Tries to break you heart
And pull you underneath
Maybe I’m wrong and all that you get is what you see
But maybe I’m right and there’s something out there to believe
Everybody’s talking in their sleep
They push a lot of air around
But don’t say much of anything
Except when they’re laughing
Like some ghosts under a sheet
Everybody’s talking in their sleep
Watch out
Get back in line
They’ll trip you up
It happens every time
Lay down
It’s just a big machine
It can break apart
Like anything
Maybe I’m wrong and all that you get is what you see
But maybe I’m right and there’s something out there to believe
Everybody’s talking in their sleep
They push a lot of air around
But don’t say much of anything
Except when they’re laughing
Like some ghosts under a sheet
Everybody’s talking in their sleep
Na-na-na He-ey…
