Buzzer
Lyricist:Dorothy S Williams
Sitting with the number eight platter at the restaurant Four twenty nine for almost anything I want Add it up, it's cheaper than the stuff I make myself I get by, I never needed anybody's help
And I tore out an ad and they told me that I Would press the buzzer, would press the buzzer At the graduate lab, they were doing some tests I pressed the buzzer, pressed the buzzer
Ride the circle off of the highway, spiral into the driveway In the maze of old prefabs, they'll be waiting at the lab
I don't know how everybody makes it through the daily drill Paint the nails, walk a dog, pay every bill I'm feeling sorry for this guy that I press to shock He gets the answers wrong, I have to up the watts
And he begged me to stop, but they told me to go I press the buzzer, I press the buzzer So get out of my head, just give me my line I press the buzzer, I press the buzzer
Ride the circle off of the highway, spiral into the driveway Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com In the maze of old prefabs, they'll be waiting at the lab
They called me back to the lab to discuss the test I put my earrings on, found my heels, wore a dress Right away I knew, it was like I'd failed a quiz The man said, do you know what a fascist is?
I said, yeah, it's when you do things you're not proud of But you're scraping by, taking orders from above I get it now, I'm the face, I'm the cause of war We don't have to blame white coated men anymore
When I knew it was wrong, I played it just like a game I pressed the buzzer, I pressed the buzzer Here's your seventy bucks, now everything's changed I press the buzzer, I press the buzzer
But tell me where are your stocks, would you do this again? I press the buzzer And tell me who made your clothes, was it children or men? I press the buzzer
Ride the circle off of the highway, spiral into the driveway In the maze of old prefabs, they'll be waiting at the lab
