I might as well be beaten now than hanging round the day
Along the way I shot the fate a thousand times to get under

Don’t you think you’re safe from the law
Watch where you think you’re hiding
Can’t you see it’s happening fast
You’re cold the last

You’re watching it happen
Letting it slide
Just do what they told you
Shut up and smile

Holding your credit card, step into the show
Your life’s a movie, odd number tenth row
Pay close attention, listen to what you think
Cameras and microphones, your mind is on the blink

You’re not the only one on the row
Too late to start all your whining
All you are is part of the show
Forget everything that they sold you

You’re watching it happen
Letting it slide
Just do what they told you
Shut up and smile
Slowly it happens
You’re in for a ride
Just do what they told you
Shut up and smile

The old information, you don’t know anything
It’s all old information, going out in style

It doesn’t matter what you prove
It doesn’t matter what you are finding
Everybody’s made up their minds
You’re cold, the last

You’re watching it happen
Letting it slide
Just do what they told you
Shut up and smile
Slowly it happens
You’re in for a ride
Just do what they told you
Shut up and smile
