Riddle Me

Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this

Who owns the chains that bind your wrists?

Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer again

Riddle me who built the machine and washed your brain?Like parents did before them, your parents did the same

They said, "Do your best, you must pass the test

You must learn to play the game"

They scrimped and saved and suffered to send you off to school

But if they'd had the cash they could've bought the class

And a different set of rulesRiddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this

Who owns the chains that bind your wrists?

Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer again

Riddle me who built the machine and washed your brain?They taught a simple system, why they had and you had not

They said, "Know your place, you can't win the race

Life's an auction, you're the lot"

If you'd ever thought to question, they would never answer why

When they buy your sweat, you're in their debt

And they own you till you dieRiddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this

Who owns the chains that bind your wrists?

Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer again

Riddle me who built the machine and washed your brain?Took hook, line and sinker, everything they fed

Worked day and night for most your life to earn their daily bread

Now you're old and weary and you lay you down to sleep

With body worn and spirit torn, what's left is yours to keepRiddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this

Who owns the chains that bind your wrists?

Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer again

Riddle me who built the machine and washed your brain?
