Confines

constant competition
the endless need for more
the question is how
and deregulation's the answer

so let's surrender our voice
and cede control
the market's never failed us before
what's the worst that could happen

it's a race to the bottom
and we're all going down
it's a race to the bottom
the winner's just the last to drown

plead willful ignorance
try to wish it away
but it's never going to change
the fact that we're on the verge
of a global collapse
and as the water fills your lungs
just remember big business had your interest at heart

it's a race to the bottom
and we're all going down
it's a race to the bottom
the winner's just the last to drown

just close your eyes and pretend your future's not going out with the tide
all the way down
