And you see, I kind of shiver to conformity
Did you see, the way I cowered to authority, you see
All my life, it's a series of compromises anyway
It's a sham, and I'm conditioned to accept it all, you see

(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
It's more than I can spend

And you see, it's emotionally affecting me
Did you see, my equilibrium unbalanced me, you see
And my life, it's a series of compromises anyway
It's a sham, and I'm conditioned to accept it all, you see

(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More than I really need)
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
It's more than I can spend

Life it's a compromise anyway
Life it's a compromise anyway
Life it's a compromise anyway
And it's a sham, and I'll accept it all

And you see, I kind of shiver to conformity
Did you see, the way I cowered to authority, you see

(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More than I really need)
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
(More) than I had before, (more) than I've presently got
(More) than I'll ever use up, (more) than I really need
It's more than I can spend
