Life gets harder day by day
Many obstacles are thrown our way
You gotta find the money you've got to pay
We cannot live our lives in a natural way

Get your head down and be a happy slave
Or someone else will gladly take your place
No time to contemplate a different pace
After all this is the human race

Everyday this feels so wrong to me
Everyday I long for a better way
Everyday the walls close in on me
Everyday I wish something would change

I cannot sell you my integrity
If I did what sort of man would I be
I cannot sell you my integrity
If I did what sort of man would I be
I cannot sell you my integrity
If I did what sort of man would I be
I cannot sell you my integrity
If I did what sort of man would I be

I gonna walk life in my own way
My principles will have to stay
If you want to sell that's up to you
It isn't something I'm prepared to do

Shiny things
Unobtainable dreams
Keep the hamsters
Running on their wheels

Shiny things
Unobtainable dreams
Keep the hamsters

I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
I can't sell you my integrity
