We'll call you when you're six years old
    E7
And drag you to the factory
    E7
To train your brain for eighteen years
     E7
With promise of security
                A7
But then you're free
    D7                                 E7
And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign
                         G7
So you may die in Florid a

At the pleasant age of sixty

The water's getting hard to drink
      E7
We've mangled up the country side
    E7
The air will choke you when you breathe
      E7
We're all committing suicide
            A7
But it's al right
     D7                                    E
It's progress folks keep pushin' till your body rots
     E7                          G7
Will strip the earth of all it's green

But there's nothing you and I can do
A7
   You and I are only two

Just pre tend that all is grand

  Then hope that everything turns out ok

You're free to speak your mind my friend
   E7
As long as you agree with me

Don't criticize the father land

Or those who shape your destiny
