Taste of mercury
Needles in your eyes
Creating the need
Shaping hearts to kill
Searching for the catch
Settle for some change
Learning to adapt
This is, this is a crackdown

A look of contempt
It's just a passing wave

Models for the programme
Sharpening up to suit your part
Talk in flying colours
Take your orders from above

Make your bid for calm
Pushing for restraint
Learning to obey
Down on your knees and pray

A look of comtempt
A flash in the pan
And you're up for sale
But it's not your day
You just bite your tongue
'til it starts to bleed
Nowhere left to run
From me

I'm not qualifying
Satisfy your basic need
Falling short of targets
Whose agenda is it now?
