Welcome 2 the Rat Race
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la

Everytime you wake up there's some motherfucker
Talkin' big stuff in your face
You only get the kind of people that open their mouth
just to swap feet

Welcome 2 the rat race.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh,oh.
Did you ever feel that life was like lookin' for a penny
In a large room with no light?
(la la la la la la la la)
(la la la la la la la)
A sophisticated man refuse to accompany
No-win situations that aren't right (la la la la la la la la)
(la la la la la la la)

Oh. If you could just pass your history class
Maybe life would be alright (la la la la la la la la)
Until then you'll be lookin' for a penny (la la la la la la la)
in a large room with no light

Yeah
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Life, life
Life, life
Life, life
Life, life
