lyrics

40-40-40

I'll say it now cause I shouldn't speak
They make you work 40 hours a week
So you can retire on 40%
But even with that you can't make the rent
5 buys you 2, yeah that's the deal
They buy your time and your youth they did steal
Now you've done that for forty odd years
Here's the part I want to make perfectly clear

40-40-40 what you do to survive
40-40-40, have you bought the lie
40-40-40, have you figured it yet?
40-40-40, it's a suckers bet

So now you bought the 40 year plan
All the riches go straight to the man
Made you slave to consumerism
To believe differently is communism
They mesmerize all the girls and boys
They suck you in with the latest toys
You'll trade your time for an hourly wage
They'll lock you up on their working cage

Chorus

Protests happen but soon dissipate
More free money, lowered interest rates
Make you think that gains have been made
So dissent soon it will fade
The utopian society for which you scream
Bought off the leaders, cooped the dream
Turned your rebellion into a marketing ploy
Sold it back to you as clothing and toys

Chorus

Come on you people get up on your feet
Come on you people get out in the streets
Come on you people it some time for action
Come on you people get some satisfaction
Come on you people, can’t you think for yourself?
Come on you people redistribute the wealth
