LYRIC: Congratulations

False smile, wide eyes

Dreams dead, lost pride

Chin up, shut down

Lost and not found

 

And hey, what happened to you today

Hey what happened to you?

 

Where is the you, the you we used to see?

The one with all the hopes and all the dreams?

The one who said the world was ours to change?

Where is the idealist artistic heart?

The revolution we were charged to start?

Where is the you, the you you used to be?

 

Earning a living

Worn down, give in

Sold out and employed

Bills paid, but hope void

 

You got a job

 

Mortgage, locked in

Own your own prison

Pension, pay cheque

Another lost reject

 

And hey, what happened to you today?

(You got a job)

Hey what happened to you?
