And you see, I kind of shivered to conformity
Did you see, the way I cowered to authority, you see
And my life, it`s a series of compromises anyway
It`s a sham, and I`m conditioned to accept it all, you see
(More) than I had before
(More) than I`ve presently got
(More) than I`ll ever use up
(More) than I really need
It`s more than I can spare
And you see, it`s emotionally affecting me
Did you see, my equilibrium more balanced me
And my life, it`s a series of compromises anyway
It`s a sham, and I`m conditioned to accept it all, you see
Life is a compromise anyway
Life is a compromise anyway
Life, it`s a compromise anyway
And it`s a sham, and I`ll accept it all
