Generate meaning
1
Some people might say my life is in a rut,
2
But I'm quite happy with what I got
3
People might say that I should strive for more,
4
But I'm so happy I can't see the point.
5
Somethings happening here today
6
A show of strength with your boy's brigade and,
7
I'm so happy and you're so kind
8
You want more money - of course I don't mind
9
To buy nuclear textbooks for atomic crimes
10
And the public gets what the public wants
11
But I want nothing this society's got.
12
[Chorus]
13
I'm going underground, (going underground)
14
Well the brass bands play and feet start to pound
15
Going underground, (going underground)
16
Well let the boys all sing and the boys all shout for tomorrow
17
Some people might get some pleasure out of hate
18
Me, I've enough already on my plate
19
People might need some tension to relax
20
[Me?] I'm too busy dodging between the flak
21
What you see is what you get
22
You've made your bed, you better lie in it
23
You choose your leaders and place your trust
24
As their lies wash you down and their promises rust
25
You'll see kidney machines replaced by rockets and guns
26
And the public wants what the public gets
27
But I don't get what this society wants
28
[Chorus]
29
We talk and talk until my head explodes
30
I turn on the news and my body froze
31
The braying sheep on my TV screen
32
Make this boy shout, make this boy scream!
33
Going underground, I'm going underground!
