Modern Slave Lyrics


(Music: Sergio, Carlos;

Lyrics: Goncalo, Bucho)

Lead: Carlos

Lead: Sergio

Work hard today

And again tomorrow

But in the end

Money you will have to borrow

You wake up early

And lay down lately

It's a closed circle

And you will never be free

Lots of people

Are betraying you

Be it in your work

Or even in your bed!

Will you can take it?

Such misery

Sometimes you think

That you will never be free

Swallowed in such trap

Your life has no emotion

You're left with few years (to live)

Will it all remain the same?

Lead: Sergio

You modern slave

Wake up from your coma

Put an end to the stress

By breaking the circle

Lead: Carlos

Throughout the years

Your life goes on

Try to improve it

But the nightmare isn't gone

At last you quit

Grap up a rope

Smoke your last cigarette

And put it 'round your throat!

Victimized by such trap

Your life had no emotion

Now you're dead and gone

And no one will ever miss you
