Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [boots stomping in unison] Left Right Left Right [Verse 1] Welcome Citizen Clock in your smile Sign here in blood Line up your dreams We’ll mill them into something useful Grey coats Gold teeth Everyone promoted to prophet today Raise your manuals Recite the safety prayer together [Chorus] Hail to the grinning gods All hail efficiency Hands in the holy grease Knees on the factory floor Praise to the grinning gods Blessed be productivity We sing the sacred phrase “Just a little faster” [Verse 2] Do not be alarmed The smoke is part of the ceremony Do not be afraid The siren is our national anthem Take this numbered mask It fits the shape of your obedience Repeat after me “I am absolutely replaceable” (oh yeah) [Chorus] Hail to the grinning gods All hail efficiency Hands in the holy grease Knees on the factory floor Praise to the grinning gods Blessed be productivity We sing the sacred phrase “Just a little faster” [Bridge] [drums pounding like a march] One more shift One more prayer One more joke At our own expense If you feel tired Consult the handbook If you feel angry Consult the handbook If you feel nothing Congratulations You’re cured [Chorus] Hail to the grinning gods All hail efficiency Hands in the holy grease Knees on the factory floor Praise to the grinning gods Blessed be productivity We sing the sacred phrase “Just a little faster Just a little faster Just a little—” [Outro] [machines drone Voices fade to a whisper] Left Right Left Right “Thank you for your loyalty”

Industrial theatrical march with male vocals; heavy, metallic drum patterns and stomps, clanking percussion, and choir-like gang shouts. Verses as half-spoken, half-chanted narration over a grinding bass drone and mechanical pulse. Chorus opens into a ritualistic call-and-response with stacked vocals, distorted whispers, and sharp, sawtooth synth swells. Occasional air-raid siren rises and machine hiss for drama; mix feels claustrophobic and hypnotic, building into a relentless final refrain., hypnotic, industrial, chanson
