Strangely Shaped by Fathers - Congratulations

False smile, wide eyes
Dreams dead, lost pride
Chin up, shut down
Lost and not found

And hey, what happened to you today
Hey what happened to you?

Where is the you, the you we used to see?
The one with all the hopes and all the dreams?
The one who said the world was ours to change?
Where is the idealist artistic heart?
The revolution we were charged to start?
Where is the you, the you you used to be?

Earning a living
Worn down, give in
Sold out and employed
Bills paid, but hope void

You got a job

Mortgage, locked in
Own your own prison
Pension, pay cheque
Another lost reject

And hey, what happened to you today?
(You got a job)
Hey what happened to you?
