Hurry up and go
That's the lifestyle
we have grown to know

Buses cars planes and trains
take us where we need
this place and that
our focus pure greed

Shake your head
saying oh no not me
yes you
your guilty
look in the mirror you'll see

Always wanting more
working day in and day out
Where are your kids
whom you know nothing about?

Praises at your job
a pat on the back
job well done
your the leader of your pack

Back at home
You know the place
Where are your kids
Would you regonize their face?

Jimmy's in his room
pushing the needle in
He gave up the fight
feels he can never win

Little Susie
she's in the bathroom
finger down her throat
right there with Jimmy
in the same boat

Alma, your wife,
she was the first to go
Pills took her early
Again, you had to know

Your happy home
not so happy now
you gave in to greed
this is what's left of the people you need

You got what you wanted
money by the sack
now you wish
you had your family back

"Rushing the Clock"
always a need
think before you get what makes
your heart bleed
