chaos theory
I am the king of the new white underclass I am the prince of the lazy and poor I am the one who sleeps the latest I am the one who won't do my chores I am the god of unemployment The Antichrist of the American dream I used to fight for church and country But now I don't fit into the corporate scheme  I used to get up and go to work But I don't play that game no more I won't work for no corporation I won't owe my soul to no company store  Study hard and you'll have a future Oh yeah, when the hell was that ever true? Study hard and you'll still go nowhere Study hard and you'll still get screwed  I used to get up and go to work But now I just wanna stay in bed Maybe I'll join the Communist Party Yeah maybe I'll become a goddamn red  Workers of the world, unite and do nothing Workers of the world, unite and relax Don't get your boss that cup of coffee Don't write that memo don't send that fax You shouldn't even pay your income tax Workers of the world, unite and be lazy Workers of the world, listen to me  Another 8 hours at the factory Another 8 hours and what have you learned Be obedient and do what they tell you Be obedient and still get burned Another 8 hours at the factory  Work all day for a tiny little check Work all day for no respect  I used to get up and do my job But now I enjoy doin' nothin' better I think I'll go bum around I think I'll enjoy this lovely weather  Maybe someday there'll be a revolution Maybe someday we'll have meaningful jobs But until that day I'm gonna be lazy I'm not gonna be no workin' slob  I used to get up and go to work But I don't play that game no more I'm not gonna work for no corporation I'm not gonna owe my soul to no company store  I used to get up and go to work But now I just wanna stay in bed Maybe I'll join the Communist Party Yeah maybe I'll become a goddamn red
