You obey society's rules 
You will be society's fools 
You obey and then disobey 
You disobey but then you'll obey 

You thought your mom and dad were fools 
You never wanted to listen in school 
Now your mind won't go where you want to take it 
You got a ride but you're not gonna make it 

You'll never catch up 
Dad, pass the catsup 
Clean that mess up, 'fess up, listen up 

If you obey society's fools 
You'll be society's tools 
And you'll obey and then disobey 
You'll disobey but then you'll obey 

You thought your mom and dad were queer 
You always wanted egg in your beer 
Now your dog won't go when you try to make it 
He's got a bone but he's not gonna shake it 

If you take society's tools 
You will make society's rules 
Which you'll obey and then disobey 
You'll disobey but then you'll obey  

You thought your mom and dad were fools 
You never wanted to listen in school 
Now your mind won't go where you want to take it 
You got a ride but you're not gonna make it 

You'll never catch up 
Dad, pass the catsup 

That's all for now 
That's all we know 
This is the end
