Everyone minds their own business
But nobody's watching the store
Everyone's playing their own game
But very few know the score
No replacing the time we're wasting
So attitudes had better improve
When the ways of the world make your little light flicker
Priorities will quickly be moved

You're never too safe to feel the fire
Everyone feels the heat
You'll never be too safe to feel the fire
Until your perfection's complete

Carnage on the corporate ladder
Bite and scratch like cats in the night
The camel's getting fatter and fatter
The needle's eye is tighter than tight
I'm not saying you shouldn't be playing
Everyone has got to pay dues
But if gaining the world makes your little light flicker
The winner will eventually loose

No time for endless division
No time for sowing bad seed
Consider the unfaithful servant
No time for letting things be
No replacing the time we're wasting
So attitudes had better improve
When the ways of the world make your little light flicker
Priorities will quickly be moved
