lyrics

Be a good man, be a wise man, be an upstanding citizen,
Pass it on, every whim, keep it all inside,
Act smart, play dumb, want everything that you could never own,
Get ahead, play dead and wake up as a clone.

The little tests, we give and we take,
The little tests, from the cradle to the grave,
The little tests, change your expectations,
Coz your life is not your own,
You're life is not your own.

Life trappings to acquire, what is the value when we die?
The crushing boredom of adult life will show us how to be,
Punctuated with all these benchmarks, show us the rewards for a life of work,
But reality is never free, you'll see what you will see.

The little tests, we give and we take,
The little tests, from the cradle to the grave,
The little tests, change your expectations,
Coz your life is not your own,
You're life is not your own.

Oo oo, oo oo

The little tests, we give and we take,
The little tests, from the cradle to the grave,
The little tests, change your expectations,
Coz your life is not your own,
You're life is not your own.
