Beat The System Lyrics

Taken to the limit
They’ve pushed you to the wall
They seem to think they own you
And it’s time their bluff was called
Don’t let yourself be bullied
They haven’t got the right
Don’t let them take advantage of you
Not without a fight!

You give some men an inch
You know they’ll steal a mile
They’ll stab you in the back
And keep on laughing all the while
Don’t let those assholes grind you down
Don’t let them waste your time
Stand up and defy them
Or they’ll use you every time

Beat the system, beat them at their own game
Don’t take the bullshit or they’ll drive you insane
Follow your heart, no matter what they say
Beat the system ‘cause you’ve gotta live life your way!

If they win you’re gonna lose
So fight them tooth and nail
Who cares about their rights
When truth and justice are for sale?
Are we men or are we mice?
Are we all wolves or sheep?
If ignorance is bliss
Then we’re all blissfully asleep

It’s all a load of bullshit
Or don’t you see the light?
You’ve gotta use your brains
If you’re gonna win the fight
Obedience to petty tyrants
The cowardice of fools
I’m a law unto myself
And I’m breaking all the rules

Beat the system, beat them at their own game
Don’t take the bullshit or they’ll drive you insane
Follow your heart, no matter what they say
Beat the system ‘cause you’ve gotta live life your way!
Live you way, yeah beat the system!

Taken to the limit
They’ve pushed you to the wall
They seem to think they own you
And it’s time their bluff was called
Don’t let yourself be bullied
They haven’t got the right
Don’t let them take advantage of you
Not without a fight!

You give some men an inch
You know they’ll steal a mile
They’ll stab you in the back
And keep on laughing all the while
Don’t let those assholes grind you down
Don’t let them waste your time
Stand up and defy them
Or they’ll use you every time

Beat the system, beat them at their own game
Don’t take the bullshit or they’ll drive you insane
Follow your heart, no matter what they say
Beat the system ‘cause you’ve gotta live life
