The Fake Sound of Progress

Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow If that was true I would have fallen apart by now The more you think, the less you act their way So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress? Never reason with a fool, but is that unkind? Looks like I've lost my mind once again I know it all sounds so contrived, but it's got to me You know I've got to be more than this Don't frown, don't scorn, cause I walk a different street to you You look so worn, i bet that life has got you blown But it will never get to me Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow If that was true I would have fallen apart by now The more you think, the less you act their ways So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress? And I feel the way you hold, hold me back from this Chances that I've missed, now they're gone Apathy is all I sense, the feeling's too intense Sitting on the fence and can't decide Don't frown, don't scorn, cause I walk a different street to you You look so worn, i bet that life is has got you blown No body will ever get to me Somebody told me that I always have to bow If that was true I would have fallen apart by now The more you think, the less you act their ways So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress? All these words that I accounted for, never fear another day Always charged but I need more, make me take away Tell me now, can you hear the sound Of all these people falling down Growing back into the ground let me smile again... SWING IT Tell me now can you hear the sound, of the record spinning Round and round, for on and on it sounds like the same old Song that I keep singing, it sounds like Dah dah dah dah (yeahyeah sounds like) dah dah dah dah (all these words that I accounted for, I'll never fear another day always charged and I want more, make me take away, all these words that I accounted for, I'll never fear another day, it makes, me, take, away) Somebody told me that I'd always have to bow If that was true I would have fallen apart by now The more you think, the less you act their ways So can you hear this, the fake sound of progress? Yeah yeah yeah progress Make me smile again (the fake sound of progress)
