Shortest Fuse

Yeah, your boss forgot the payroll again
He's such a capitalist
Don't even know what we spent it on
Now, you're selling your guitar to pay rent

I'm all over you, oh
You're not in the mood, oh
Just playing it cool, oh
Drawing straws for the shortest fuse

Held my hand over the stove
Wanted to feel in control
Some people learn from mistakes
But I just repeat mine over again
To see if something changes
It's so degrading

I'm all over you, oh
You're not in the mood, oh
Just playing it cool, oh
Drawing straws for the shortest fuse

Take what you can get
Remain apathetic
Never stick your neck out of line
Live paycheque to paycheque
Be safe and complacent
Is this what you call free enterprise?
A slave to the man until we die
We do what we can to feel alive

I'm all over you, oh
You're not in the mood, oh
Just playing it cool, oh
Drawing straws for the shortest fuse
I'm all over you, oh (I'm all over you)
You're not in the mood, oh (not in the mood)
Playing it cool, oh (playing it cool)
Drawing straws for the shortest fuse
