Society has no regret
Stretches us out like human tack
Twists the gears to move the rack
To keep us tight and highly strung
Much easier to hold the notes
The ones that get stuffed down our throats
The ones that we think that we sing ourselves
Society has no regret
A child playing with marionettes
Then torches them when play is done
To watch the flames eat up and take
We entertain, to be its friend
But seeking value in an early end
Its wish we die before become a burden
Society has no regret
Tears out gold teeth for circuit boards
Greases gears with chewed up hoards
Then renders down their fats for soaps
Society has no regret
Keep us numb on drugs and hope
Steady pulse of dopamine
Notice nothing cut or gleamed
Society has no regret
The great machine has got to turn
Your body's your country fuel to burn
To expend the shell as it sees fit
Society has no regret
The ash spread out makes fertile fields
Let the future make the past its meal
