Well our money goes out, the bills come in
Round and round, we go again
I come close but I never win
I’m stuck on the treadmill

Another day, I’m punching steel
Til my arms too numb to feel
Like a hamster on a wheel
I’m stuck on a treadmill

Wish I knew a better way
To keep myself alive
Checking sheets of metal, everyday from 9 to 5
Others may be living
But me I just survive
Me I just survive, 

Machines screaming in my ear
Wasn’t I just standin here
I went to sleep, I grabbed a beer
Now I’m stuck on a treadmill

Me and the robot, working away
He looks at me as if to say
I’ll be doing your job someday
Stuck on a treadmill

Wish I knew a better way
To keep myself alive
Checking sheets of metal, everyday from 9 to 5
Others may be living
But me I just survive
Me I just survive, 

Our jobs are going by the score
They are laying off 100 more
20 years and they show you that door
I’m stuck on a treadmill

Strikes are coming, troubles brewin'
Whole town's going, to rack and ruin
Next year what I’ll be doing
Stuck on a treadmill
