The Take/The Pace

Take another big bite of another piece of the cake
If you never feel full then you know that you're on the take
Take another big gulp and see if it fails to slake
The first you have built and you know that you're on the take
And then it'll be too late

Try to slip out unseen, try to worm out like a snake
If you've always come slithering back then you're on the take
Make a really big racket announcing your great escape
If you make up excuses and you know that you're on the take
And then it'll be too late

Take another big bite of another piece of the cake
If you never feel full then you know that you're on the take
Take another big gulp and see if it fails to slake
The first you have built and you know that you're on the take
And then it'll be too late (too late)

The path of least resistance is the one that gets you through
The more that you comply with it the easier for you
The only thing you truly need is a simple set of rules
The more you learn to live by them the more you can produce
And the more you can reduce yourself to a simple interface
The easier it is for you to keep up with the pace
