lyrics

Oh I was thinking, when's my future gonna start?
My fingerprint a roadmap? Or just some functioning part
of this machine that’s built all around me,
serving people I’ll never see

Ohh but its the thought, whens my future gonna start?

I’m still deciding what you call smart
Should I think with my head or feel with my heart?
At what age do dreams become a crime,
If you do live on your own dime?

Ohh but its the thought, whats this education bought?

Punch in, punch out, stimulate, knock yourself out
Have a drink and a smoke in the meantime.

I don’t believe in destiny or fate,
Nor wish a greater power to designate,
a gift to me I could never afford
if it could not be earned on my own accord.

Ohh but its the thought, what's this education bought

Punch in, punch out, stimulate, knock yourself out
Have a drink and a smoke in the meantime.
Punch in, punch out, stimulate, knock yourself out.
Have a drink and a smoke in the meantime

I’ve got bills that don’t pay themselves,
I’ve been raised, I’ve been raised to sell,
the latest phone, designer homes
Grown up show and tell

So much to do in the meantime
So much to do in the meantime
There can be no more
There can be no more

Words by: Anthony Ajluni
