lyrics
Acclimate to this sedentary lifestyle
As a brand new evolutionary ideal
Minute by minute and mile by mile
But it won't work without
The fear we need to instill
The fear we need to instill
To petrify, immobilize
I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Sit up straight
If you're going to slouch
We'll cut you out of the picture
Confiscate all your riches
Kick you to the curb
And not pay for your stitches
And you'll crawl back and demonstrate
The fear that we instilled
The fear that we instilled
To petrify, immobilize
Is this what you call growth?
Cause it surely isn't progress
Why can't we have both?
Oh sure you call it nonsense
But miss the point
I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Is this what you call growth?
Cause it isn't progress
So why can't we have both?
Why can't we have both?
Cause I'm afraid I'll die if we don't
As a brand new evolutionary ideal
Minute by minute and mile by mile
But it won't work without
The fear we need to instill
The fear we need to instill
To petrify, immobilize
I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Sit up straight
If you're going to slouch
We'll cut you out of the picture
Confiscate all your riches
Kick you to the curb
And not pay for your stitches
And you'll crawl back and demonstrate
The fear that we instilled
The fear that we instilled
To petrify, immobilize
Is this what you call growth?
Cause it surely isn't progress
Why can't we have both?
Oh sure you call it nonsense
But miss the point
I'm moving on
I'm moving on
Is this what you call growth?
Cause it isn't progress
So why can't we have both?
Why can't we have both?
Cause I'm afraid I'll die if we don't
