A part of something greater
the pride of industry
or just another brick they laid
top build the factory
Today we turn in harmony
the motor running clean
but what happens when the gears
get sick of the machine?
Keep falling down dominoes
who are the ones in control?
cars on a rail restless souls
all we leave behind is smoke
As the wheels go
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
it’s a train headed off the tracks
There’s safety in numbers
but there is also strength
and there are more of us
then there will ever be of them
A workforce slowly drowning
the tired becoming sick
black air blows out the chimney’s
from the fuse already lit
You rest your head on dynamite
so you’ll wake and atone
for every little finger
that that gets worked to the bone
Keep falling down dominoes
who are the ones in control?
cars on a rail restless souls
all we leave behind is smoke
As the wheels go
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
it’s a train headed off the tracks
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
it’s a train headed off the tracks
It’s raining It’s pouring
on top this sinking boat
we’re taking on water
this town won’t stay afloat
They still wave their proud flag
a clever disguise
but once you look closer
a change grows inside
Keep falling down dominoes
who are the ones in control?
cars on a rail restless souls
all we leave behind is smoke
As the wheels go
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
it’s a train headed off the tracks
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
it’s a train headed off the tracks
