And So It Goes lyrics

You wake up, roll over to your alarm clock's screaming bray 'cause it rings at 6:55AM almost every day Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream Work all your life, be a corpse Rat race: Corpse Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream Get up, look at your ceiling which is someone else's floor Just a quick shit-shower-shave, you're running out the door Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream And so it goes And so it goes Work all your life and be a corpse and that's the way it goes And goes, and goes....and so it goes And that's the fucking way it goes Off to your job where you work two thousand hours a year Keep it up for forty years and watch your life disappear Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream Add in all those hours that you'll need to spend asleep Two thirds of your life is wasted, buddy - life is fuckin' cheap Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream Rot and decay, American dream And so it goes And so it goes And so it goes Work all your life and be a corpse And that's the way it goes And goes, and goes....and so it goes And that's the fucking way it goes and goes And so it goes
